By Trial and Error
The stage is set: a simple black curtain stands centre stage. Then two hidden circus artists appear and the show begins.... But as the two disoriented acrobats move to perform their first lift, a terrible doubt arises in their seemingly well-oiled routine. Is this the right move? Is this what we rehearsed? Taken by the need to continue at all costs, the duo gets caught up in the game, invent and jostle. Sometimes absurdly lost, sometimes meandering magnificently but always bouncing back. By Trial and Error is a delightful show of acrobatic lifts, full of humour borrowed from burlesque and silent cinema, where the audience is constantly surprised by the antics and skill of the performers.
