About this Event
The circus returns to the MainStage at the 12th Avenue Arts theater this winter. The Seattle based contemporary circus company Acrobatic Conundrum takes up residence in the heart of capitol hill for the ninth installment of their adroitly curated cabaret, featuring a spate of phenomenal acts from the pacific northwest and beyond.
A door defends. And beckons. It divides. And offers a way in. The circumstances change and an opening we took for granted is lost forever; meanwhile the unexpected saunters in through a window left ajar. In Vol. 9: Thresholds, nine acrobats somersault their way into liminal space, ready to knock on the portal to the unknown. Darting back and forth across the fourth wall, pursuing the thrill of the edge, and pausing only briefly with one hand poised on the knob, Acrobatic Conundrum shares its paean to the doorways of our lives and the opportunities they represent. Because when one door closes, a trapdoor opens.
Featuring performers Ivanna Wei, PJ Perry, Dream Frohe, Jody Poth, Leah Jones, Duo Maria and Oliver, Emma Curtiss, Gabby Leiva, and Terry Crane.
Artistic direction by Terry Crane and Acrobatic Conundrum.
Vol. 9: Thresholds is co-produced with SANCA, the School of Acrobatics and New Circus Arts.
