Astonishing acrobatics combine with a live choir in this jaw-dropping, pulsating performance.
The Pulse is a monolithic work of scale that unites audience, acrobat and choir into a single mesmerising organism. Its raw, its real, it sings, it sweats " it pulsates.
A shimmering mass of sixty acrobats and choir members unite and divide, becoming a spectacular organism of muscle, bone and voice. Watch wide-eyed as a mountain of bodies crumbles into an ocean of sound. Towering human structures move with precision through a pulsing web of noise and light. Seemingly impossible levels of cooperation and feats of shared humanity, repeat, stretch, blossom and decay. Witness an intricate, organic synchronicity of human movement and sound " all to the beat of your own pounding pulse.
