ORBITE

öff öff Productions
SWITZERLAND

Although choreographed, not every move can be rehearsed as the performers are exposed to wind and weather. It is all the more surprising how fluid their movements are. They climb the tower with impressive lightness and acrobatic agility, shroud themselves in fabric or are suspended upside down in midair like spiders. Every move works, is slick and full of elegance.rQuote from: bieler tagblatt 1.7.05

NB: We may have to alter the time of the performance as the shows cannot take place if it is raining or there is more than a light wind. Please register your mobile phone number with us to receive updates prior to the performances.

From Switzerland comes the breathtaking Orbite: a 17-metre tower with spinning wings, activated by seven fearless climbing & abseiling dancers.

ORBITE is a play of body, weight, gravity, momentum & turning points combining dance, aerial, acrobatics & theatre. It is an intricate dance of supple human bodies partnering the tempo & weight of the steel. Like pirates of the night the dancers court risk by climbing the narrow edges between balance & fall.

Don't miss this gravity-defying spectacle on its first & only UK date as twilight falls over Woking Park.

An added extra is the opportunity to take part in open workshops and watch local groups perform at Woking Park on Saturday 5 July 5.30pm – 8pm. Please take a look at Big Dance (Dance in the Park) for more information.
