Caesar Twins

Underbelly Productions & MZA

These Polish twins get themselves in to all sorts of positions during this hour long show that at times is a little uncomfortable. It feels bizarre to be watching the two brothers and how up close and personal they get as they lift, twist, and touch each other through a very inventive series of physical sketches. Unfortunately, with the thrust stage design, if you are sat on either side you miss out on a lot due to a large proportion of the performance relying on the projector screen, and the supposedly moving depiction of one of the twin's accident is completely lost. However, you can't deny their phenomenal strength and talent, and this certainly is great family entertainment.

Udderbelly's Pasture, 12 - 25 Aug (except 18), 5.50pm (7.00pm), prices vary, fpp 112
