Zumanity - Acts

2 Men

Lovers Jellison and Gabriel dance a tumultuous tango. Through their fierce choreography, a passionate story of love and anger unfolds. Again and again they attract and repel in intense conflict until the magnetic energy between them becomes more than they can bear.

Artists: Jellison and Gabriel Corbin

Extravaganza

A fanfare of horns and drums announces the conclusion of the show. One by one, the cast members make their fashionable entrance, parading down the catwalk in costumes every bit as vibrant, bold, and diverse as their spectrum of talents and personalities. It’s an incandescent finale to the colourful cast of performers who have guided the audience on their journey into the world of Zumanity.

Artists: Company

Hand-2-Hand

In an aggressive but intimate hand-balancing duet, Katerina and Valeriy entwine in a powerful act with breathtaking acrobatic-inspired manoeuvres. Their flawless movements thrust the two kindred spirits into a provocative tale of lust.

Artists: Valeriy Simonenko, Katerina Bazarova

Hand Balancing

Dima is alone, going in circles around his pole. He has just about given up on love when he meets a lovely contortionist who seems to fit into his world. She brings him back to earth in this beautiful act.

Artist: Dima Shine

Midnight Bath

You can’t keep love locked up in a bedroom…so Vanessa and Ed give their imaginations free rein and let fantasy take them to unexpected places. Using milk as their medium, they caress each other’s flesh in a luscious sexual experiment.

Artists: Vanessa Convery and Ed Bohlen

Orgy

The cast emerges from every orifice of the theatre, drawing the audience into their hedonistic play. In duos and trios, and some flying solo, they assume a smorgasbord of sexual positions on a lazily revolving stage, where they touch, stroke, moan and embrace until the tension builds to an orgasmic conclusion.

Artists: Company

Roue Cyr

Jonas is brought to the stage on his knees.  A slave to love and forced to perform for his Mistress, he spins and turns inside his wheel while she cracks her whip. He is eager to please, even donning a blindfold for some of his tricks. One can only hope the pleasure is worth the pain he receives...

Artists: Jonas Woolverton

Straps

Louise, alone on stage in fragile silence, is bound by her straps. In an exercise of self-inflicted pleasure and pain, she uses the leather to tease and torture herself, and slips seamlessly from one auto-erotic aerial figure to the next, trapped in her bonds all the while. To the sounds of heavy breathing, gentle moans of ecstasy and the friction of her straps, Louise’s self-pleasuring bondage flight draws to a climactic finale.

Artist: Louise Yorath

Waterbowl

Abandoning their innocence, two sweet and pure contortionists wash away their inhibitions and taste love for the first time. Fluidly they glide through the water, striking an amazing array of sensual poses and exploring their physical, sexual and creative limits all at once.

Artists: Ulziibayar Chimed, Bolormaa Zorigtkhuyag, Estefania Laurino and Gyulnara Karaeva
