TANDEM
Contemporary Aerial Theatre / Street Performance
Tandem combines physical theatre, comedy, intricate interactions and highly skilled, stunning aerial dance.
Through a visually spectacular and intimate story, it explores the notion that we can work in tandem while being very different - and in some cases our differences and cause balance (quite literally)
An incredible display of strength, humour, friendship, fragility and circus!
WINNER of the WA Circus Award at the debut season at Fringe World 2015.
4.5 Stars - The West Australian
"Natural Wings have developed their own magic that moves beyond circus skills and engages us in the intimate dialogue of contemporary dance. The choreography taps into experiences and feelings that lie in the spaces of our shared existence that are without words, beyond words and yet affect us deeply, more than the power of words" - Australian Stage

Three of Western Australia’s top female circus artists have joined forces to present a super sugar rush of a show.
Combining spectacular circus stunts with laugh-out-loud slapstick comedy, it’s fun for the whole family.
Suitable for Outdoor Festivals as well as indoor venues.
A ground based option is also available.
" The skills displayed are stunning, with routines carefully prepared and choreographed to fit perfectly with the musical soundtrack.
Candy Girls is a show that is as sweet as its name, with serious circus craft and ability that is not merely “good enough for the kids” but is thrilling entertainment for adults lucky enough to attend. " - Australian Stage

FLAWS and ALL
Stunning, Raw, Aerial Theatre and Physical Comedy
Outer Images above by Jacqui Uhd, Centre image by Sari Blum
A raw, brave and beautiful circus-comedy about one woman’s flaws and all.
Perth’s own Dawn Pascoe is the beauty and brains behind Natural Wings (Winner of the WA Circus Award at Fringe World 2015 and 2016) and invites audiences to witness exquisite choreography on the ground and high in the air, delivering a stunning and quirky combination of aerial dance and physical comedy.
“I'm fascinated by the notion that we try to hide our flaws, our failures, our cellulite, our not-so-perfect lives which got me thinking: why not embrace these flaws? And how do I show this message using just my body, my creativity, two trapezes, a diabolo, an evolving costume and a cake?,” Pascoe says of Flaws & All.
★★★★ “A beautiful and complex, mesmerising experience ... a perfect fit" Melbourne Press 2016
★★★★ "Poignant narrative punctuated by dazzling physical displays. . . Seeing Pascoe step up to a trapeze and her feet leave the floor is akin to seeing a creature leaving one element to demonstrate a familiarity and freedom in joyous release in another, as when a flopping fish is returned to water or a waddling bird takes flight "
- Australian Stage
★★★★ "Pascoe combines lyrical dance, clowning, diabolo, and aerial trapeze and the precision and mastery of all of those skills is evident in every moment she is on stage (or in the audience, as it turns out...). The extensions in her body lines demonstrate a rigorous classical dance training background, the muscle contours across her body show her strength, and the agility of her face is up with the best of Le Coq or Commedia artistes. "

We are available to produce, stage manage, perform in and co-ordinate cabarets for indoor and outdoor venues.
