Out of Water and Grounded on Air

Beware the drowsy effects of sleeping on the train. Waking up halfway through a dance performance with one of the dancers staring down and right into the back of the head is not a feeling worth exploring.

Out of Water sees fishes flapping all over the place in a chaotic, violent and spasmodic fashion. Drowning on land and fighting for a sense of exploration the sheer power is nothing short of frightening. Desperation and hopelessness empowers the many. Utterly intriguing.

Grounded on Air on the other hand, is a sedate affair. Engaging the audience through a broken fourth wall, it is not a performance easily taken. Moments raise questions on the actual delivery. Too close, too informal and there lies a connection that lies in waste. Lines are under a severe blur with the concept and execution bleeding from the stage and into the seats with no warning. Dancing isn't for everyone, if those anyones include someone in the audience.

Nothing like a double bill for a night out spinning the comforts well out of the mind.
