“LEO soars!” -- New York Post
“Brilliantly bizarre” -- The Herald (UK)


A gravity-defying theatrical wonder, LEO turns your perspective upside-down alongside his doppelgänger. Now pacing the room on handstand, now doodling from the ceiling, now breakdancing down the wall or playing the saxophone in mid-air, the Buster Keaton-like silent character LEO and his ‘stage double’ gradually convert a claustrophobic room into his own amazement park in this remarkable solo act.


Is he falling or floating? At the end of this odyssey, the question is of no real importance.

Global Theatre

Broadway, West End, Hong Kong, Berlin – wherever you are, theatre is made of the same elements: a script, actors, set, costume, lighting and so on. The story and how it’s told is what makes one production unique from another. In this series of talks, meet-the-artist sessions, backstage tours and more, we explore these differences in theatre from around the world – from cultural misunderstandings to reality bites to the intersection of the real and the virtual.
 
The Art of Illusion
How do they defy the laws of gravity, dancing on the ceiling or down a wall? How do they split space? Find out for yourself when you meet the entire Circle of Eleven team. This promises to be the funniest, or perhaps the most surreal meet-the-artist session ever.
