Photo Coverage: James Thierree Brings Surreal Acrobatics to Sadler's Wells in THE TOAD KNEW
Step into the wonderfully weird world of multi-talented performer and director James Thierrée. Following Tabac Rouge in 2014, James Thierrée returns with his latest critically acclaimed creation, featuring a seamless mix of mechanical marvels, music, surreal humour and acrobatic finesse. Scroll down for photos from the show below!
Six characters emerge in a strange fairy-tale lair. A woman transforms into a lizard, a piano plays itself, and plates magically appear and disappear. In the middle of it all James Thierrée works his magic with the aid of a servant, only to have it undone by a man beast, and aerialist Thi Mai Nguyen and dancer Sonia Bel Hadj Brahim spin their tricks.
