Saturday Sessions: Acrobalance with Mimbre

Drop in to unleash your own acrobatic skills with help from Mimbre’s professional acrobats and be wowed by a gravity-defying performance. Watch the professionals as Mimbre dismantles big problems into moments of laughter in an extract from Weight(less) – a performance combining acrobatics, movement and humour. Then dive into some of the foundations of acrobalance and how to tell stories using our bodies. Learn and practice your own acroskills, creating human pyramids and daring counterbalances with the people you came with or friends you’ve just met, in a session tailored for everybody. Celebrate hope and support and leave with a smile, some unforgettable moments and a big spring in your step. Mimbre is a women-led producing company, creating acrobatic theatre for outdoor and unusual settings. They run a vibrant local youth programme and an artist development programme for physical performers. Saturday Sessions are the perfect place to start the weekend. On a monthly basis you can enjoy a piece of art, make something new along with the artists and create with other children and their families – all for free! At 2.30pm, following the Saturday Session, we end the afternoon with Ballroom Boogie x Toasty Tots XL from DJ collective BORN N BREAD. Please join us for a dance!
