The Spheres at Doklands Dublin

The company
Strange Fruit is a Melbourne-based performing arts company that produces and performs a remarkable style of work that fuses theatre, dance and circus, using a unique elevated medium.

Perched atop 4 metre high flexible poles of original design, the troupe delivers a sublime performance, bending and swaying in the air, captivating and engaging the audience in absolute fascination.

Originally based on the image of a field of wheat swaying in the breeze, the poles' extreme strength and flexibility allow the performer to bow to impossible angles, swaying back and forth in a hypnotising dance as the audience look sup in wonder.

With a world- renowned repertoire that celebrates a wide variety of themes and stories, the company has achieved near-cult status in almost every continent across the globe. Performing regularly at festivals, special events and private function, their sublime, hypnotic beauty is truly remarkable and must be experienced to appreciate its full effect.

The Show
The Spheres is a unique spectacle performance which has broad family appeal. Creation, exultation, liberation, life, the universe and everything.

The show takes a whimsical look at physics, the miracle of birth and humanity's existential relationship to our planet.

Giant, illuminated orbs of luminous beauty contain characters that gradually emerge to stand and rise above their spheres of existence. Eight performers present a beautiful, reverent and sublime performance.
