Grapes of Bacchus
This whimsical yet poignant circus show follows a clown who stumbles upon some grapes. And begins to unravel the stories hidden within each one. From the vine that stretches to grow in foreign soil, to the cluster of grapes that depend on one another to thrive. The resilience and adaptability it takes to press forward in new lands, the patience of fermentations, while trying to maintain the relationships of a family that is split across generations.
Through laughter, wonder, and tender moments, the grapes will be a powerful metaphor for the struggles and triumphs of mixed cultures, the inevitability of loss, and the desire to stay connected despite life's many separations. a simple stage, a single performer and themes that are universal, this show is for those who want a little more.
Please note: The performance on 10th March has changed duration from 5mins to 50mins since the Adelaide Fringe Guide was printed.

Presented by: Express Move Me
The company started in 2013 from a desire and a need to create exciting new work. That work had to be energized and explore the physical realms of story telling. We wanted to connect with our audiences on a visceral level. Drawing them into the show and enveloping them in surreal, fantastical worlds.
Our physical theatre training was used to develop all of the early work. It provided the springboard to launch into creating the shows. Using mythology and archetypes, diving into the rich territories they provide, exploring the stories at a deeper level. Which then connected more meaningfully with our audience.
Now we wish to build a community of creatives, providing training tools, and a vocabulary to create. Focusing on constantly developing and honing ones craft and skill.
