2011 Christmas Pageant

Southern Edge Arts entertained the crowds at this years Christmas pageant with their wacky and wonderful costumes. Performers were dressed in steampunk as they hunted down the terrifying Kraken. Even in the mists of the hunt they displayed their amazing circus skills and tricks. Performing death defying balances and extraordinary acrobatics they continued to entice and entertain the audience.

 

2011 Albany Show

This year the SEA dancers performed at the Albany Show. Choreographed by Sam in collaboration with the students the dance looks at the devastation and destruction that occurred during the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. The dancers showed this theme by exploring the 4 elements: earth, water, air and fire. The last section featured our senior ballet students as spirits left drifting amongst the ruins.

 

CircaSEA at Perth Royal Show

SEA was invited to perform at the Perth Royal Show as part of the City of Albany’s Guest Town exhibition. Circus Trainer, Beth O’Neill, and a handful of the circus kids developed a twenty-minute performance and hosted workshops teaching  different types of manipulation from hula-hoops to juggling over the first weekend of the Show (October 1st and 2nd). The performance was based on an urban/street comedy theme, containing a mix of manipulation, tumbling, adagio and slapstick. As ever, our crew did us all proud and our demonstration added colour, vibrancy and fun to the Albany exhibition, as we do in Albany itself.
