The Greek Gods take on the form of muscular acrobats in GODZ, and are keen to impress the audiences with their strength, agility, flexibility, and spectacular muscles (and other body parts) in this light-hearted circus-comedy/strip tease. Lucky us - a selection of Greek mythological Gods (Apollo, Dionysus, Cupid and Hercules) take the form of earthly muscular acrobats to perform at this year’s Adelaide Fringe. These mythological beings provide a show of impressive acrobatic feats, dance routines, and light-hearted humour from the playful performers – plus, some homo-erotica peeping through here and there in frisky, comedic ways. There are plenty of acrobatic routines to admire in the show, including a human tower of powerful Gods, balancing a whole body on a single head, and vertigo-inducing handstands on quivering towers of chairs. There are also other feats of talent including provocative crack whipping from a flirty Hercules, multiple jaw-dropping aerial moves, a speedy Diabolo routine, and impressive yoga-like positions on handstand canes that require phenomenal torso strength, plus some contemporary breakdancing. The music throughout the show flips consistently between slower, dramatic songs with choir additions and, to, in stark contrast, upbeat pop songs like Rihanna’s scandalous S&M, and even Rammstein’s industrial metal Du Hast makes an appearance. And, of course, the catchy Zero to Hero from the beloved Disney movie Hercules plays while Hercules shows off his strength and balance on stage with a free standing ladder act. The costumes in GODZ are exactly what you expect - strappy gladiator sandals, gold feathered wings for the flirty Cupid, Pteruges (a defensive skirt of leather or multi-layered fabric strips or lappets), and togas made with loose drapes of fabric that let slip tastes of the muscular bodies underneath. Stand out scenes include the cast's clothes-less depiction of nude Greek statues, with only the performer's hands and a small number of engraved silver platters hiding their dignity, plus some tactical tucking for when 360 degrees somersaults are needed. As you can imagine, some of those platters go missing throughout the act, and so coverage comes through the utilisation of other naked bodies to cover your own. Another stand out involves Hercules finding himself in Christian Hell, where he is teased by a group of spinning, whip-cracking and twerking nuns in black and white habits, and sparkly sequined jocks. Who doesn’t want to see Hercules being enthusiastically whipped by nuns, and then him dominantly riding them like they’re his subs as Rihanna sings “chains and whips excite me” in the background? And a performance that can’t be forgotten is also Cupid’s fast-paced, gasp-inducing aerial routine as a sexy Zeus (think big grey beard, glittery underwear and giant, platform stripper heels, as Boogie Beats electronic house hit Somebody to Love has the audience dancing in their seats. A viewing of GODZ is sure to be a fun and light-hearted way to spend an evening – with some sexiness and a bit of nudity thrown in for good measure. If you’re looking for a fun night out while still wanting to witness extraordinary feats (and want to see a bit of beautifully sculpted muscle), put this show at the top of your list.
