Try Again

Circus • Performance
SA Premiere

'Try Again' provides insight into what it is like to be a circus performer. Taking the audience into their training space and showing their own personal coping mechanism for when things just don't go right.

Showcasing the talents of two Vertical Insanity Circus members, Alex Charman and Samuel Matthewman. Displaying an array of circus skills and talents, including acrobatics, aerial silks, contemporary dance and poi, Try Again explores ideas about perseverance, human nature and trust. An enthralling and captivating performance, Try Again asks us the most difficult question: is it better to give up, or should we try again?
