Anchored In Air: Aerial theatre show for all at Ventnor Fringe Festival

Anchored In Air is a groundbreaking aerial theatre show brought to you by Head Over Wheels, a disabled and non-disabled aerial company, pushing the boundaries of Circus, in collaboration with Ventnor Fringe and Crying Out Loud.

Taking place on Saturday 19th July in Ventnor Park, this debut show is a mesmerising fusion of circus, dance, text and live music, taking audiences on a thrilling journey into the world of flying wheelchairs, integrated audio description, gravity-defying acrobatics, and the captivating challenge of navigating a colossal tower.

The trio grapple with themes of identity and our perceptions of ourselves- within the structures and confinements of society. Watch them clamber and tumble, as they navigate the ever-changing and difficult world we live in.
