It will then tour to eight venues in Scotland and Wales from February to June 2015 .
Three’s A Crowd crosses the boundaries between ground and air, expertly merging harness flying, aerial acrobatics, contemporary circus and dance theatre to create an exciting, challenging and spectacular show that delves deep into the inner workings of human relationships.
Inspired by the themes of action, reaction and consequence, and
how we all affect each other, Three’s A Crowd is set around a reunion of six friends. Who brings them together? How are the characters connected? What really lies beneath the surface as the layers are peeled back? What happens to the friendship dynamic, to each individual, when a third element becomes involved? When individual memories and perceptions differ what are the results?
This dynamic, energetic, humorous, yet equally endearing show that explores human emotions is deftly told, using stunning imagery and breathtaking aerial skills, by six leading international performing artists - Danuta Ramos, Freya Jeffs, Chrissie Ardill, Tony Mills, Rob Heaslip and Itxaso Moreno.
Three's A Crowd is directed by Jennifer Paterson, Artistic Director
of All or Nothing Aerial Dance Theatre; with creative collaboration from writer Zoe Venditozzi and choreographer Brigid McCarthy. The show has been designed by Becky Minto, with lighting design by Kate Bonney, and is set to a powerful new score by Luke Sutherland.
All or Nothing is Scotland's leading aerial dance company creating, performing, training and helping to establish aerial arts in Scotland since 2006. http://www.aerialdance.co.uk/
The creative team have a vast array of experience: Jennifer Paterson was part of the aerial team who entertained at the London Olympic ceremonies and has performed for companies such as National Theatre Scotland, Becky Minto designed the closing ceremony of the Commonwealth Games, Kate Bonney is the lighting designer on Enchanted Forest and Luke Sutherland is a prolific musician and composer who played with Mogwai on their last tour.

All or Nothing Aerial Dance Theatre: All or Nothing are Scotland's leading aerial dance company. Based in Edinburgh they have been blending breathtaking aerial acrobatics with dance, theatre and contemporary circus since 2006.
The company’s creative work has seen them take on everything from large-scale outdoor spectacle to grand interiors and cabaret dining, small to midscale theatre touring,festivals and one-off events. They were recently the tree top tumblers at the award winning, sell- out event Enchanted Forest, bringing live performance for the first time to Faskally Woods and Pitlochry. 2014 was an exciting summer with the company being partners in two Commonwealth Games projects. The large scale site specific show White Gold in the old Sugar Sheds in Greenock, and they were dancing down the roof of the Glasgow Science Centre in August for Cryptic's night time nautical extravaganza, Sound to Sea.
All or Nothing create greater opportunities to experience aerial dance and theatre, running classes, outreach, workshops and training programmes, spanning both the professional and community sectors. They regularly consult for other arts organisations and charities and Artistic Director Jennifer Paterson sits on the board for Articulation, Scotland's umbrella body for circus, street arts and physical theatre.
In 2013/14 they established a new professional training programme, Flying High, which bridges the gap between dance and aerial, up-skilling professional artists in harness work.
