Showtimes: 2pm and 5pm
Timeless is about the passing of time and the fear that we as humanity
are literally running out of it.
Joli Vyann uses their unique and dynamic style of dance, circus and
theatre on a 7m high rotating hourglass, to tell the story of
civilisation as we know it and its fragile relationship with time and
nature.
The performance moves through a narrative of climate change, its
consequences and the larger question of how humanity copes with the
precarious balance that could at any point tip into chaos. 4
Performers dance, leap, gracefully balance and throw themselves with
acrobatic prowess around, on and inside the rotating hourglass. This
is a dare devil yet poignantly sensitive representation of the
ambiguous nature of time and the threat of irreversibility in relation
to climate change.
