Natalie Inside Out

Fri 25 Oct 2024

Playful, beautiful and highly skilled, Natalie Inside Out is a unique collaboration between world-class hand-balancer Natalie Reckert and digital artist Mark Morreau.

Using technology and video projections to turn our conventional ideas of circus upside down and inside out. Literally.

Fusing circus and interactive technologies, Natalie and Mark playfully investigate the relationship between the actual and the digitally represented body. Through a blend of live acrobatic performance, extreme close up slow-motion video, and spoken word, they take movement on stage and transform it into projected landscapes on screen, humorously and poetically examining the ways in which digital media can interpret and represent the human body, whilst revealing its underlying mechanics, emotions and motivations.

A clever, lighthearted and visually stimulating show...

Natalie Inside Out makes full use of Reckert as an acrobat, but the show is more wideranging... making use of comedy, theatre, lecture, poetry and memory as well as circus

The Reviews Hub

...its innovation, its breaking down of conventional audience/performer barriers and the sheer ingenuity of combining digital, visual and circus skills at such a very high level... two of our finest UK based artists

Adrian Berry, Artistic Director, Jacksons Lane

I've never seen anything quite like Natalie Inside Out... a piece of truly contemporary circus, very of the moment... and move towards a new form of 'circus in film... hilarious... informative...
