Australian acrobatics ensemble Gravity & Other Myths are playing at this year’s Udderbelly Festival at the Southbank Centre. In a performance lasting one hour, these incredible athletes astound and amaze with a routine that makes an art form out of human endurance and physicality.<\/p>\n
A Simple Space isn’t only\u00a0a showcase of breathtaking acrobatics, but a finely-honed routine that incorporates plenty of humour into the act – you’ll love watching these guys because they’re so much fun. Gravity & Other Myths have their performance down to perfection, knowing precisely how to work an audience, keep them on side, and hold them spellbound throughout the act. Clever music (an accompaniment by Elliot Zoerner adds to the atmosphere, and he even turns himself into a human percussion instrument at one point) and lighting are also used to enhance the effectiveness of the brilliantly-conceived act.<\/p>\n
