Ten Thousand Hours

  • Theatre
  • Dance

An ode to the countless hours needed to achieve great things.

A live drummer keeps the beat and a huge digital clock flashes as the troupe partake in a joyful game of human jenga. Bodies upon bodies. Springing from one pair of shoulders to another. Jump. Spin. Drop. Gasp!

Award-winning Australian company Gravity & Other Myths peel back the curtain to reveal just how intricate and demanding each effortless move is. One moment you’ll witness the flawless execution of impossible tricks, the next you’ll see them built from the ground up. Complete with falls, wobbles and nail-biting recoveries.

After touring 46 countries and performing to over one million people worldwide, Gravity & Other Myths bring their critically-acclaimed show to Melbourne for the first time this summer.

This is a love letter to our bodies and the amazing things they let us do every day. A show for families, first-timers and fanatics.
