Gravity & Other Myths: Ten Thousand Hours - BroadStage Santa Monica

Running April 24, 2027 at 7:30 PM & April 25, 2027 at 2:00 PM at BroadStage Santa Monica! Australia’s Gravity & Other Myths takes on a bold question: how long does it really take to achieve something extraordinary? Eight elite acrobats take the stage with a live drummer and no safety net, just human bodies pushed to their absolute limit, bending, balancing, and defying gravity itself. The Scotsman calls Ten Thousand Hours “breathtaking” and The AU Review calls it “jaw-dropping,” while Edinburgh Festivals Magazine awarded it five stars, praising it as “an awe-inspiring display of acrobatic brilliance.” Sold out at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe two years running, the production also received the Critics Circle Award at the 2025 Adelaide Fringe Festival, along with the Best Circus Award and House of Oz Purse Prize in 2024. Is gravity a myth? After witnessing one of the world’s great circus ensembles, you may start to wonder. Tickets at broadstage.org!
