Useful information
about the performance
The formation Gravity & Other Myths (GOM) already carries its motto in its name: For the Australians, gravity is just a myth to be overcome. Two years ago, GOM thrilled audiences with the show “Backbone”, which explored the nature of strength with spectacular artistry and dizzying human towers. Now they present “The Mirror”, a gripping combination of acrobatics, dance, music, light and visual art. Five women and five men pose controversial questions about gender roles and media self-presentation. Thought-provoking and entertaining elements combine to create a dazzling kaleidoscope, and GOM doesn’t miss out on the humour either.
