Contact Gonzo VS. Bristol
Mayfest 2018Imagine a kind of dance that’s also a martial art, that’s also a bit like a game that reminds you of something you’ve seen on the internet, or in a slapstick film, or on the streets.
Making their UK debut at Mayfest, Contact Gonzo bring their unique, playful, jaw-dropping physical style to Bristol, sharing their technique with the people of Bristol. It’s violent and tender, very funny and very serious. The show you’ll see involves performers from Contact Gonzo and Bristol working together to create a once-in-a-lifetime encounter.
We saw Contact Gonzo at Reykjavik Dance Festival, where they emerged from the back of a van driven into a gallery. We were never quite the same again.
