Liverpool welcomes Rose English - legend of the London stage and the circus world. Rose has been devising and performing her own work for over thirty years on three continents. Ornamental Happiness - a show in song and circus - is Part One of her major new production to be presented in its entirety in 2008. Take your seat inside a small but perfectly formed jewel box. In this crystalline salon setting, seven consummate performers lift a shimmering vessel brimming with all the promise of the sublime to you - the celebrants. And then another, and another! Drink it in! Luke Stoneham's fearless shards of sound issue full blown from singers and percussion alone, invoking a transparent filigree of perfect form to complement two Chinese contortionists rapt in their own unwavering embrace. Here songs solidify, objects sing and gravity is reversed, and you too will be transformed.
