text: RUNNING TIME: 70 MINUTES (NO INTERVAL)
  AGE SUITABILITY: 8+ FEATURES EMOTIVE CONTENT
  PREMIERED: MAY 2019
  A show about time, age and the stories we tell ourselves.
  With a cast ranging in age from 11 to 60 This Time uses the imagery of circus, autobiographical storytelling and original equipment design to create compelling visual theatre which looks at perceptions of strength and ability: how we are strong in different ways at different times in our lives.
  Featuring a series of aerial frames which are raised from floor to ceiling the four performers lift, push and cradle each other through a world of windows, thresholds and ledges. Bodies are suspended high in the air and swung close to the ground in innovative new takes on trapeze and swinging cradle.
  What the press say
  “This Time, is about time and transformation. There’s a sense of wonder in the work of aerial theatre company Ockham’s Razor, a lovely rapport between the performers as they swing, balance and fly.”
  “really uplifting, often amusing and always enjoyable”
