Tangle presents Half-life at the Funicular Railway Station
Circus-theater meets science fiction-- eight women on trapeze survive the end of the world.
Inspired by mechanical systems, survivalist propaganda, and the animal kingdom, Half-life is an intricate exploration of utopian visions, the organic vs. the robotic, strategies for surviving the apocalypse, time, and decay. Tangle builds and breaks connections between the ground and the air.
Coming to the Funicular Railway in June 2012!
Tangle is a young and vibrant movement arts company with an interdisciplinary focus. Working in traditional circus disciplines like trapeze, aerial silks, rope, and partner acrobatics as well as music, drama, and spoken word, Tangle's unique performance style captivates audiences and tells a many-dimensional story. Tangle members have studied performance and trained circus arts at schools from around the world to the Philadelphia School of Circus Arts in Germantown, Philadelphia.
