Review: LEO: The Anti-Gravity Show

Suspend your disbelief and dive into Leo's imagination. This one-man-phenomenon is a trip; warped perspectives and gravity defying dance bubble up to keep you on your toes while you’re not really sure where Leo’s toes are.

The premise is simple, as is the set – one man, an empty room, a suitcase. But for an hour or so, that man, that room and that suitcase open a world of possibility, impossibility and beauty that will make your brain hurt (in a good way) and your heart expand.

Clever use of video overlay and beautiful music combined with the oddly pleasant confusion of reality make this a show that challenges and charms. Plus Leo’s got one of the best exits in showbiz. Seriously.
