Petit Mal
Race Horse Company
in collaboration with Circo Aereo
UK tour June 2012
From the 1st to the 7th of June
Petit Mal rocks. Dark humour reigns. Wild physicality comes at you with nonchalant daring, on a stage littered with garage debris. Break-dancing and hip-hop fuse with a Chinese pole, trampoline work and acrobatics. Petit Mal emerges from the Finnish underground, ready for a theatrical riot.
Suitable from 7yrs to adult
Duration: 75 mins
electric, wild and uncontrollable
Lyn Gardner, The Guardian ****
The show keeps surprising us with its random dream logic and twists of weird, low-key but anarchic comedy... This is circus completely outside the box.
Donald Hutera, The Times ****
