Casting Off

After an award-winning season at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Casting Off is coming to the Western Downs to deliver a theatrical circus experience and unique community workshops.

Self-directed, hand-knitted, and honouring the life events that get in the way of work, Casting Off is a theatrical circus experience that celebrates thoughtful, strong, and resilient individuals.

Casting off stereotypes, three generations of dynamic women who tumble, talk, fly, and balance precariously; where the personal is political, the furious is funny, and the acrobatics are downright dangerous. A disarming, hilarious show about living on the edge and talking about it.

Flipping, climbing, and flying to a soundscape of the many disparate texts (lists, poems, conversations, melodies, arguments, and biographies) that embody each day. Casting Off is nonnarrative circus with words that’s easier done than said.
