Kataklo's Love Machines @ the Edinburgh Fringe

The ThreeWeeks review of Kataklo's Love Machine, which was a dance/physical theatre piece:

They look as though they could be miners up in the air, but they're hanging off a saddle suspended from the roof, so maybe not. The soundtrack beats and thumps along, as B-movie-style action fills the stage: we've got dancers who look like cyborg soldiers from the future, who seem to be making attempts at first contact with the alien life they find once they reach the stage from that floating saddle, before setting off an interplanetary battle of the sexes. On this planet, the locals live inside huge wooden triangles that roll around, being walls and houses and intimidating scenery. But Kataklo let you put your own story to their eclectic, passionate movement.

tw rating: 3/5
