Gravity & Other Myths

special performance for schools and educators
April 16, 2027

Try, fail, try again—behind every great move is a grueling process. Here, eight acrobats reveal what it takes with spellbinding precision and joy.

The Australian circus troupe pulls back the curtain on their high-flying process in an ode to the countless hours needed to achieve great things. In this honest and ingenious new work,  world-class acrobats investigate physical skill; how we obtain it, how we perfect it and how it can transform our lives. It's an invitation to watch them work and a love letter to our bodies and the amazing things they let us do every day.

Recommended for 3rd-8th grade students.

GOM's work utilizes an honest approach to performance to create shows with a focus on human connection and acrobatic virtuosity. After forming 2009 as a group of young Adelaide artists with a passion for circus and physical theatre, they've spent the past 13 years growing steadily and creating six critically acclaimed main stage works.
