SUMMARY:Gravity and Other Myths
DESCRIPTION:Everybody is a master of something. \nBlink\, step\, jump\, balance\, flip\, fly. \nThis is an ode to the countless hours needed to achieve great things. \nA tribute to the dedication required to realise our physical ambitions. \nAn acknowledgement of the backstory that is often more spectacular than the finished product. \nEight world class acrobats investigate physical skill; how we obtain it\, how we perfect it\, and how it can transform our lives. Through highlighting the nuance of high-level acrobatics\, audiences experience a heightened appreciation of the countless hours required to master the skills they are witnessing. \nThis is a love letter to our bodies and the amazing things they let us do every day. \nThis is an invitation to watch us work. \n“Once again gravity and other myths bring shock\, awe\, and delight.”\n– Glam Adelaide \n“Jaw-dropping”\n– The AU review \n“Regular gasps and squeals of disbelief from the audience members behind me\, and spontaneous applause from the audience throughout\, reassure me that it is not just me who thinks some of the skills on display are unbelievable. This is an almost mind blowing level of skill on display and what can be achieved with a dedicated pursuit of perfection.”\n– The Clothesline \n“The performance is a showcase of this company’s talent that extends way beyond acrobatics\, into visual storytelling\, movement\, and contemporary dance.”\n– Stage Whispers \n“I would give this 10 stars if I could. An absolutely mind blowing show from this home grown Adelaide company.”\n– Kids In Adelaide \nPhoto credit: Darcy Grant

SUMMARY:National Theater Live Broadcast – The Audience
DESCRIPTION:Returning to cinemas for the first time in over a decade\, Helen Mirren plays Queen Elizabeth II in the Olivier and Tony Award®-winning hit production\, directed by Stephen Daldry. \nFor 60 years\, Queen Elizabeth II met with each of her 12 prime ministers in a private weekly meeting.

SUMMARY:All Things Equal
DESCRIPTION:All Things Equal\nThe Life & Trials of Ruth Bader Ginsburg \nSupreme Court Justice “RBG” welcomes a friend of the family to her cozy chambers to convey\, over the course of ninety fascinating and often funny minutes\, a sense of her life and its many trials: losing her mother the day before she graduated as valedictorian of her Brooklyn high school … being one of only nine young women studying law at Harvard while also raising a daughter and helping her husband battle cancer … fighting for women’s rights in the nineteen-seventies before condescending all-male courts … and taking courageous stands for human rights as a voice of reason amid a splintering and increasingly politicized Supreme Court. An evening with a great and compassionate icon of straight-thinking American justice emerges … an RBG who is not only “notorious” but victorious as she takes a stand for ordinary people facing the many challenges of a changing world. Bring your scrunchies\, your hankies\, your humor and your heart to this entertaining and uplifting event! \nWritten by Tony Award-Winning playwright RUPERT HOLMES\nStarring Michelle Azar as Ruth Bader Ginsburg\nDirected by Laley Lippard
