Silvestro set to dazzle at Laycock St

Jake Silvestro

Laycock St Community Theatre will welcome the contemporary show December with Jake Silvestro on July 20.

December is an odyssey of physical theatre, circus, storytelling and huge charcoal drawings, drawn live, exploring one-man’s journey through the catastrophic bushfires of 2019/20

Silvestro’s astounding skills allow audiences to engage with a moving story of resilience and hope.

The show opens a space for reflection on the deeply personal impacts of natural disaster that are forgotten in the media.

It will lay at Laycock St at 7.30pm on Saturday, July 20, with bookings available at laycockstreettheatre.com

Roundabout Circus will host a Movement Masterclass with Silvestro the following day.

The two-hour workshop, Creative Tumbling, will focus on Silvestro’s process as an acrobat and theatre maker.

Aiming to combine acrobatic movements into performance contexts, the class will use choreographic formulas and games to help students move in creative ways.

The class is aimed at people aged 15 and older who have an existing movement practice, such as circus, dance, hip hop or physical theatre.

It will take place at 1pm on Sunday, July 21.
