Weight(less) by Mimbre

Three performers are entangled in each other, wearing neutral coloured clothing. They are holding a massive orange sack above their heads. They are stood in a tunnel.

A logo that reads AROUND THE LAKE FESTIVAL in black capital letters. In the top left corner is an orange semi-circle shape. In the top right corner is a blue rectangle. In the bottom left corner is an orange triangle with a yellow squiggly line. In the bottom right corner is a pink square with a circle filled with black dots.

Experience the uplifting journey of Weight(less), where the resilience of three women shines through amidst life’s challenges. With a blend of acrobatics, movement and humour, this heart-warming performance dismantles big problems into moments of laughter, celebrating hope and support to leave you with a smile, unforgettable imagery and a spring in your step.

While Weight(less) doesn’t offer solutions, the three acrobats provide reflections on the world we live in and the emotions we experience, inviting audiences of all ages and backgrounds to laugh, cry, and dream together. Join us for this joyful escape from the chaos of everyday life, celebrating the courage it takes to keep on going when times are tough.
