★★★★ A mesmerising and intimate ode to their performing lives together

- The Guardian

Ockham’s Razor return with an intimate duet crafted and performed by the two Artistic Directors.

For 20 years Alex and Charlotte have been making circus together. Lifting, catching and carrying; stepping on and around each other. They have been dropped. They have picked each other up.

Featuring two performers, a suspended frame and a stage: this is a show about creation and compromise. An irreverent, highly physical and heart felt dive into navigating a relationship and the negotiation involved in making stuff.

For anyone who has ever tried to make something with someone else: a decision, a work of art, a life.

Funded by Arts Council England and in association with MimeLondon and partner company Lowry, Salford.
