Winners of the Gasworks 2012 Circus Showdown, Three High Acrobatics proudly presents
KNOCK OFF
A blonde, a brunette and Japanese guy walk onto a building site...
Combining nail biting acrobatics, death defying stunt work and a healthy dose of mischievous Aussie humour, Three High Acrobatics bring you KNOCK OFF - running for SIX SHOWS ONLY during the 2012 Melbourne Fringe Festival!
"A fast paced performance that will have you in stitches, and in awe!" - Triple RRR
Accentuated by an all important soundtrack of classic pub rock anthems, KNOCK OFF entertains audiences with fast-paced, humorous and highly skilled circus acts using teeterboard, ladder, manipulation, aerial rope, partner acrobatics and more.
"The blokey energy screams potential Tap Dogs-style global success" - The Age
Highly respected in their fields of stunt work, flying trapeze and fire spinning, the Three High Acrobatics ensemble (who met and trained at the National Institute of Circus Arts) all come from very diverse backgrounds. Originating from Japan, Taka Seki has over ten years experience as a stuntman, Sam Aldham started his career as a flying trapeze artist and has a background in Theatre and Music, and Chris Carlos was a hippy who eventually became the first fire spinning performer accepted into NICA!
In 2011 Three High Acrobatics was awarded the Circus Oz Award for the spirit of collaboration required behind KNOCK OFF. With SOLD OUT seasons at Adelaide Fringe Festival, Sydney Hoopla Festival and The Spiegletent at the Docklands, come see yourself why audiences are loving this show!
