27 - 28 Feb 2010

Erth; Gravity and Other Myths Saturday 27 February various times from 5pm – 7:30pm
Icarus; Audrey; Birds Nest Sunday 28 February various times from 5pm – 7:30pm
If you can’t get a spot on the Gerda’s Journey promenade, there will be plenty of entertainment direct from the Adelaide Fringe back at the main site from 5pm to keep you amused until the mainstage performances each evening.

On Saturday Erth will provide an eye-popping experience with their giant mechanical dinosaurs and giant insects – the kids will absolutely love them and learn cool stuff at the same time; Gravity and other Myths will confront their fears through physical theatre, spoken word and dynamic acrobatics. Freefall follows seven distinct characters as they reveal their own fears, both common and bizarre.

On Sunday Icarus present Roo’d – giant kangaroos on amazing bouncing stilts. Jumping up to a metre off the ground and two metres in a bound, they are a phenomenal sight. Their characters are a crossover of outback macho and inner city punk savvy — always Roo’d but never offensive. A favourite at festivals around the world. Voted 2nd best act (after Coldplay) at the 2002 Glastonbury Festival on BBC Radio 1 Listeners Poll. You’ll also meet Cocoloco’s Audrey, a cleaning lady who talks more than she cleans and a twitcher who‘s spent so much time birdwatching that her head has turned into a nest from which birds surreally appear.

“… clever … anarchic, eye-catching, idiosyncratic, quirky and wildy funny street theatre…” – WOMADELAIDE
