Circus Arts Show Commissioned by ArtsEmerson Wows Audiences: BroadwayWorld.com

Duel Reality, a show by acrobatic theatre company The 7 Fingers, is wowing audiences, according to a BroadwayWorld.com review.

ArtsEmerson is a commissioning partner of the show. The 7 Fingers previously performed Duel Reality, a retelling of Romeo & Juliet, in Boston.

Duel Reality is the very essence of drama – the audience, divided into red and blue sides as they enter the theater – is engaged and on edge from the start. United in those 80 minutes of performance, the audience spontaneously erupts in expressions of awe and gasps of disbelief, linked together in the extraordinary shared experience. It’s what live performance is all about.
