Miss Haversham; "..the
strangest lady I have ever seen, or ever shall see...dressed
in rich materials, satins and lace and silks...bridal flowers
in her hair, but her hair was white. I saw that the bride
within the bridal dress had withered like the dress, and like
the flowers, and had no brightness left but the brightness
of her sunken eyes. "Look at me" she said "you
are not afraid of a woman who has never seen the sun since
you were born?" Charles Dickens 'Great Expectations'.
|
Catrin Osborne magically brings
to life one of Dickens most inspired creations who went on
to become one of the most loved characters in literature.
Miss Haversham is a fully interactive street theatre experience,
who can transport the public into her dust filled house of
stopped clocks and spider infested cakes. |
|
 |
Perfect for any literature
and arts festival, community events and halloween, victoriana
or burlesque themed parties. Beleive it or not children and
adults are captivated this slightly macabre but lovably eccentric
old lady. |
Amazon.Was conceived for the
2006 London Mela, the largest 1 day celebration of asian culture
outside of the sub continent. Performed in a striking red
and Gold costume this act is a beautiful, contemporary aerial
dance most suitable for family audiences, daytime and community
events, outdoor festivals and those with little previous experience
of watching aerial skills. |

from the novel Clockwork Orange. This angry character hurtles
up and down the rope in a death defying display of aerial
skill. A darkly comic act perfect for caberets, festivals
and nightclubs. |

walls, somersaulting and tumbling along the way.

|

Cyber Girl; A brightly coloured
UV, post punk, twenty fifth century space girl. |
Web; A performer climbs the
rope, one hand or foot is placed through the loop and they
are spun extremely fast by another performer. One of the most
high impact and dynamic aerial skills, a perfect climax to
any event.(Also can be added to the end of any rope act.)

costumier Ilona Karras and together they can design and create
new costumes for aerial, stilts or fire to suit your event |
