The Conedancers
Untitled document An Air-filled cone eight metres high creates a new stage for an extrordinary aerial performance. With four axes of rotation we have created a choreography that is both unique and unusual. Acrobatic and upbeat but also passionate and moving. The Conedancers is performed to an original score and computer driven LED lighting effects. Eight metres tall and made of PVC, the structure is a giant air-filled cone with its base strapped to a ballasted steel ring seven meters in diameter to keep the bottom flat. The lines for the two performers are winched up through a load bearing central pole with a spindle set at the point, so most of the action has the performers bouncing off an area halfway up the outside of the cone, approx four metres above the ground. This show is viewed in the round. Wearing harness rings attached at two points the performers have 4 axes of rotation used in the choreography for running, bouncing, twisting and somersaulting.
