A girl has knocked over a pile of blocks, she looks shocked. In the foreground a different performer is stacking blocks underneath someone's foot. A man is wrestling with tape and another performer is doing a cartweel while hoolding a hula hoop in her feet.
Two performers are doing an acrobalance: one is standing on the other's thighs while she is arched back. her feet are on the ground but her hands are in the air. A performer is walking on two giant jenga blocks stacked on their ends.
Three performers are doing an acrobalance, another performer has a block stuck on her bottom, she looks a bit like a turtle.

Nimble

A way-too-dangerous game of Floor is Lava

Tasmanian circus company ROOKE will bring you right to the edge of your seat. Nimble is a game of Jenga wrapped up, stacked, and served in a glass case of emotion. Blocks, boxes, and acrobats will be stacked and balanced (and just might fall). Walk the line between tension and joy, risk and release.

This is teetering, pocket-sized circus: hilarious, intimate, and fun for families and adults too.
