NoFit State is known around the world for ground-breaking
productions that challenge preconceptions of contemporary
circus, combining live music, dance, stage design, text and
film with traditional circus skills. With Noodles, the company
takes a new run at the barriers between circus and theatre,
re-inventing themselves and moulding their work for the
stage.
In a sea of irreverent chaos and a world of knots, wires and
spaghetti, a surreal cooking show loses the plot as the
noodles take over.Aerialists,hand-balancers,contortionists
and magicians twist and bend the frontiers of reality in a
world that will make you laugh, gasp and drop your jaws in
wonder at moments of great beauty and madness.
Suitable for all ages.
