David Dimitri defiantly avoids conventional tightrope walking, choosing instead to jump or scamper above our heads. Earlier he balances on the edge of an oval table that the others roll slowly on its side across wooden the playing area at ground level. In the midst of so much fantasy, the trapeze show they offer is the equivalent of technical pyrotechnics. Over a dozen different scenes, this creation by Lazlo Hudi in collaboration with the performers challenges conventional limitations and flouts our need to feel secure. Text might have got in the way of their clear message.
Lighting is as wonderfully varied as the performances.
A three-person band vaults from spot to spot under the circular tent to play instruments including steel drum, flute and xylophone. The saxophonist somehow gets to the upper reaches of the space before holding forth from a suspended wrought-iron lounge. Unclassifiable but eminently enchanting.
