No Punchline

Overview

A raw and defiant portrait of femininity through movement, Sara Pheasant's No Punchline immediately jumps out as one of the most intriguing circus shows at this year's Melbourne Fringe. Combining rope, pole and trapeze work with an "evocative soundscape" and the intense physicality of boxing, the hour-long show features six circus performers alongside Oceania Bantamweight Champion Bianca 'Bam Bam' Elmir. 'Bam Bam', incidentally, might be the most perfect boxing nickname we've ever heard. Get ready to rumble.

This event is one of our top ten picks of the Melbourne Fringe Festival. Check out the other nine here.
