Whether you're a gym junkie or a spin class flunkie, there is something in Bi-Cycle for you. This is a hit theatrical show in the making from Sam Anderson (Underbelly, Netflix's Drown) that brings abdominal crunching comedy to the stage for 50 minutes of sweat, soul-searching and fun.
When it is on? August 6-11th @ 8:30pm. Place? The Butterfly club, 5 Carson Place Melbourne 3000
Bi-Cycle serves anyone who's laughed out loud in a fitness class, it's for the cardio obsessed and couch potatoes. It's for humans who are trying to find what they're looking for. Set in a shiny boutique gym environment, the chiseled and imperfect instructor has a sense of soul, albeit one that has dieted fast and self-destructively, following every single fad from hi-protein to low carb and back again!
Best described as soulful, sweaty and fun, this fourth-wall-shattering solo performance tells the story of one of the most unique and damaged motivational characters to hit the Melbourne stage. After smash-hit seasons in Sydney and Adelaide Fringe 2018, Bi-Cycle is finally ready to raise the heart-rate of Anderson's hometown, Melbourne.
For adolescents to adults, 16-86 years old, who's ever felt on the outer, confused about identity, didn't fit into a box and attempted to find their soul through fitness!
This production opens on 6th August @8:30pm nightly and runs for a SEASON LENGTH till 11th August @8:30pm. Bookings recommended. finishing time: 9:20pm
"Polished yet intuitive, and thoroughly nuanced, it is the only segment that has us invest in its narrative. The piece is playful but earnest, finely calibrated to utilise Anderson's charisma, to win us over."
