Barely Methodical Troupe

BROMANCE Thu 7 – Fri 8 Oct 7pm

WEEKEND FAMILY FILMS COMING THIS AUTUMN see website for details

Meet Britain’s hottest young acrobats, Barely Methodical Troupe. This exceptionally skilled all-male trio won a Total Theatre Award at the Edinburgh Festival for their outstanding debut Bromance, and it’s easy to see why.

BROMANCE

A thrilling show, it wittily celebrates all things blokey through a series of heroic, risk-taking physical feats. With an inventive mix of flawlessly-timed acrobatics, shoulder-high balances and a stunning routine inside a spinning metal wheel the lads explore male companionship and its limits. Playful and touching, this jaw-dropping show takes British circus to new heights. Barely Methodical Troupe are outlandishly talented; Bromance, their award-winning show, is unmissable! Bromance produced by DREAM with support from Underbelly Productions and the National Centre for Circus Arts as part of Circus Maximus. #Bromance Theatre £16, Under 26’s £11 60 mins/Age 8+

POST-SHOW TALK

Thu 7 Oct

The Egg, Wales Millennium Centre and Oxford Playhouse’s co-production of Holm Theatre’s

JOSEPHINE Fri 15 Oct & Sat 16 Oct 11am & 2pm Josephine Baker. The little girl from Missouri who became an original 20th Century icon. Dancer, actor, activist, campaigner, spy and mother to the multicultural Rainbow Tribe, Josephine broke the mould and high-kicked the pieces to the kerb. But, almost 50 years after her death, Café Josephine, a down-at-heel New York diner dedicated to her memory, faces closure. Nobody remembers Josephine, who she was, what she did, what she stood for. And she just can’t allow that. With a sultry, Harlem Renaissance-inspired score, spring-heeled Charleston dancing and a hatful of historical figures, Josephine blurs the real with the imagined as we follow one woman’s incredible journey from the slums of St Louis via the bright lights of Paris and into the hearts of the world. PERFORMANCE PACKAGE
