We are in a time of crises. The world after Covid won’t be the same. If the city is a theatre, how should it consider this? @DomPost @PA__2021 https://t.co/gADJIvKMyr

Colossal Productions take us back to the 1940s with an Alien Abduction...while dancing and tumbling, the performer is abducted and caught in a tractor beam as they writhe with their upwards trajectory. Coming soon to Wellington waterfront! #CT2021 #PA2021 #wellington #circus
