1 Bubble Wesley Enoch , Carl Polke (composer), 2008 single work musical theatre 'Bubble is a dark, comical piece about the barriers we put up between ourselves and the world. As their world comes crashing down around them the characters realise that life is smoke and mirrors, a journey that can only end in death. Bubble is a return to the high impact spectacle that Legs on the Wall is renowned for. It is a fusion of acrobatics, contemporary dance, contact improvisation and everyday movement. Performed with a live three piece band, the music for Bubble is reminiscent of a carnival somewhere between circus and an old Hollywood musical.' Source: Legs on the Wall e-newsletter 15/04/08.
