Backbone is circus like you’ve never seen before. From revolutionary Australian company Gravity & Other Myths, Backbone is contemporary circus stripped back to its core: physical, playful, and sometimes even painful.

Backbone tests the limits of the human body, featuring jaw-dropping physical feats, hair-raising acrobatics, and moments of hilarious absurdity.

An acrobatic marvel that has to be seen to be believed. Sweaty, sinuous, and seriously impressive.

Neighbourly has 10 double passes to giveaway to the premiere of Backbone, on Thursday, 14 March at 7.30pm. Simply like or thank this post to go into the draw to win!
