Knock Off

Five minutes with Sam Aldham.

Name and Role: Sam Aldham – performer

Describe your Fringe show. Set on a building site; KNOCK OFF combines teeterboard, ladder, manipulation, aerial rope, partner acrobatics, stunt work and a healthy dose of quintessential Aussie humour.

Can you tell us briefly about yourself/your company? Three High Acrobatics was formed in 2011 with members Sam Aldham, Chris Carlos and Taka Seki; all students of NICA (National Institute of Circus Arts). With a broad range of skills, we aim to devise full shows for festivals and touring, single acts and cabaret performances.  We look to create exciting, humorous and high skilled circus performances that entertain and amaze.

What excites you about Melbourne Fringe? The opportunity to show our unique Aussie style of circus to a wider audience. We also look forward to being able to see an array of new and exciting shows, and meeting new people who share our passion for performing.

WHEN & WHERE: Tuesday 2 October to Saturday 6, Gasworks Theatre
