Life on Wheels @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 21 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

On roller-skates and in the air, two women revisit the interweaving stories of their past lives and loves – from the post-war optimism of the late 1940s to the domestic realities of the 1950s and beyond.

Bella Kinetica’s circus theatre show has physical feats that will take your breath away as they skate, spin and fly across the stage.

Featuring the recorded experiences of real women and with a fabulous soundtrack of 40s and 50s music; Life on Wheels is a gentle, moving look back in time.

8PM & 3PM (Sat matinee)
