Strange Fruit has garnered worldwide cult status for their hypnotically beautiful, daredevil performances. Swoon! is a remarkable fusion of dance, theater and circus. Perched atop 13-foot high flexible poles with the sky as their backdrop, Strange Fruit enacts a spirited, seductive comedy—full of love and loss, joy and freedom—up on high. Resembling a field of wheat swaying in the breeze, bending at impossible angles, these Australian performers create an utterly captivating spectacle.
