Ten Thousand Hours

When author Malcolm Gladwell said “Ten thousand hours is the magic number of greatness”, he captured one part of the complex debate about what defines mastery.

Australian circus superstars Gravity and Other Myths are masters of the impossible and this is their celebration of the overwhelming amount of time, sweat and joyous invention required to do what they do.

Over the course of an hour, accompanied by a driving, dynamic and intricate percussion based live score, eight world class acrobats investigate physical skill; how we obtain it, how we perfect it, and how it can transform our lives. Through challenge, repetition, game play and blunt daring they guide us from the world of the possible, past the limit to what lies beyond.

A worldwide hit, Ten Thousand Hours is a love letter to our bodies and the extraordinary things they let us do every day.

It is an invitation to watch the work behind the work and a celebration of the distinct physical language and joyous bravery that defines Gravity and Other Myths.
