Something to talk about: Acrobat show ‘Something’ is not to be missed

It sure is something else!

“Something,” at the New Victory Theater now through April 16, is a beautiful performance featuring a troupe of seven skilled acrobats who fuse circus, dance, physical theater, and clowning into a singular, captivating performance that appears comically effortless. From reading a book to playing a game of poker, these inventive performers create silly, surreal scenes out of everyday ordinary acts.

A special performance on April 2 is specifically geared to families with special-needs children and was designed in collaboration with Autism Friendly Spaces, Inc., which provided consultative services for this performance.

Performances run aproximately 60 minutes and there are no intermissions.

“Something,” now to April 16, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 2 pm; Fridays and Saturdays, 2 pm and 7 pm; and Sundays, noon and 5 pm. Tickets begin at $16.

Autisim-friendly performance April 2 at 5 pm. All tickets $25.
