BE WOWED BY AERIAL TRICKS AND ACROBATICS AT LITTLE NIPPERS

15-10-2008
Expect to be enthralled at this year’s Little Nippers Maawit Kara Children’s Festival by trapeze, hula hoops, stilt dancing, diabolo, acrobatics, partner balancing, comedy and more with circus professionals Dawn Strindberg and Isobel Lyall who are ‘Chicks with Tricks’.

‘Chicks with Tricks’ is a fun-for-all-ages circus theatre show that is high-energy and fast-paced and told through character, comedy and clowning.

Aerial artist Dawn Strindberg is ‘Natural Wings’ who will perform stunning static and mesmerising dance trapeze, and tissu acts filled with grace, strength, highly skilled tricks and exquisite choreography.

Natural Wings Aerial Dance, which was established by Ms Strindberg in Perth in 2005, has spellbound Australian and New Zealand audiences and been labelled by circus professionals as 'dynamic and lyrical.'

The trapeze act is sure to wow visitors to Little Nippers on the eastern foreshore with drops, roll downs, flexibility and strong holds all displayed on the tissu in a visually spectacular act.

Presented by the City of Mandurah, the 2008 Little Nippers festival is also kindly sponsored by Healthway: Smarter than Smoking, Lotterywest, Mirvac, Alcoa, Terrace Art Framers, Kim’s Toy Boys and loads of dedicated volunteers from Curtin University and the Mandurah community.
