The Aluminum Show at the Royal Concert Hall in Nottingham has been billed as an ingenious creation of visual theatre combining dance, puppetry and illusion to stunning effect.
Already a touring sensation in Europe, it leaves audiences lost for words – but 'amazing', 'fascinating' and 'incredible' are just some of the ways critics have described it.
The Aluminum Show made its UK debut this summer, premiering at the Edinb
urgh Fringe Festival before embarking on selected regional dates, which include the Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham from August 28 to 30.
The show was devised by artistic director Ilan Azriel, a former dancer in Tel Aviv's Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company, who has let his imagination run riot on the theme of aluminium in all its various industrial forms to create a joyous visual fantasy.
Inanimate objects are brought to life by a cast of athletic dancers and an imaginative production, and cold metal tubes are turned into warm living creatures, transforming the theatre into an alternative world where anything can happen. Wordless, but accompanied by an original soundtrack, this is a show aimed to appeal to people of all ages, languages and cultures.
Since it was first performed at the Israel Festival in Jerusalem in 2003, The Aluminum Show has toured Israel, Argentina, Russia and mainland Europe, as well as taking up lengthy residencies in Athens, Lisbon and Atlantic City.
The Aluminum Show is one you have to see for yourself, because it truly is a show like no other. Humorous, entertaining and ultimately uplifting, this spectacular phenomenon will enchant the whole family.
