SUMMARY:By a Thread: One Fell Swoop Circus
DESCRIPTION:$50 Regular || $45 Member || \nSEVEN ACROBATS AND 30 METRES OF ROPE \nLong spools of white rope run through pulley sheaves and wrap around\nbodies\, explicitly connecting the artists’ movements above and off the\nground. Like the booms and sheets of a sailing ship the performers are \nhoisted and swung by one another to create striking tableaux and breath-\ntaking dynamics. The actions of one acrobat affect and implicate the \nmovements of others in a mesmerising negotiation of cause and effect. \nBy A Thread offers rich visuals of inventive aerial acrobatics from some of\nAustralia’s best circus artists. The relationships between ensemble\nmembers on stage mimic the everyday relationships we have as human\nbeings. The acrobatic ensemble is the vehicle through which ideas of risk\nand trust are explored\, creating an intimate audience experience around\nthe dangers and joys implicit in engaging with others. \nMore than mere bodies in space\, By A Thread is an exploration of\ntensions physical\, emotional and relational.

SUMMARY:Aquakultre: 1783 LIVE
DESCRIPTION:$45 A Regular || $40 A Member // $35 B Regular | $30 B Member||\nAquakultre is the artistic voice of Lance Sampson — an uncommonly versatile singer\, rapper\, filmmaker and storyteller from Halifax\, Nova Scotia. Aquakultre came to national prominence in 2018 after winning CBC’s Searchlight songwriting competition with the second song he ever wrote. He has gone on to release multiple singles\, EPs\, collabs and two full albums\, 2020’s Legacy and 2022’s Don’t Trip\, both of which were long-listed for the Polaris Music Prize along with numerous East Coast Music Awards and other nominations and wins. Aquakultre’s co-directed video for Pay It Forward won the Audience Favorite at the 2021 Prism Prize Awards. Lance’s third full-length Aquakultre release\, 1783\, will be released worldwide on February 6\, 2026 via Next Door Records. The title refers to the year when over 3000 people of African descent boarded 81 ships and sailed out of New York. These were the so-called Black Loyalists: some of them free people\, many of them still enslaved\, who fought for the British in exchange for the promise of land and freedom. Arriving in Nova Scotia\, they were given the poorest housing\, little food\, few supplies. Yet they survived and went on to found Black settlements across the province. \nDescended directly from those first settlers\, Aquakultre has created a profound concept album that is deeply rooted in his own rich family history. The 17-track album comprises 11 full-length songs and six interludes\, with each track describing Lance’s life\, Black Nova Scotian history\, family stories\, and intergenerational reflections on carrying the torch passed on to him from elders\, acting as a beacon of light for a brighter future. \nProduced by 2 x Music Nova Scotia Producer of the Year Erin Costelo\, mixed by 2 x Grammy winner Qmillion (Robert Glasper)\, and mastered by multiple Grammy nominee Chris Athens (Drake)\, 1783’s musical direction seamlessly blends a range of historically Black musics\, with hints of gospel\, blues\, jazz\, and soul\, mixed in with vintage R&B overtones.

The ensuing commotion is interrupted with the\narrival of two unannounced guests – Von Rothbart in the guise of a man and on his arm a beguiling young\nlady\, Odile his daughter who has been transformed to look like Odette Siegfried immediately invites Odile\nto dance with him and is soon too blinded by desire for the striking creature in his arms to notice that\nanything is amiss. Overcome with joy he asks his mother to let him marry Odile. When she acquiesces\,\nVon Rothbart steps in demanding that Siegfried first swear on his heart his true love for Odile. Readily\nagreeing Siegfried swears his love only to realize that he has been duped by the laughing Von Rothbart\nand Odile.
