With the help of the spiral, the three performers of TeaTime Company explore themes of balance, influence, power, flow and friction. The spiral allows them to push their limits. Where a jump can suspend time and a fall can last forever. The Ripple effect describes the influence, persistence and consequences of our choices. Just as natural forces cause vibrations and ripples in water, our choices cause ripples in our relationships, thoughts and experiences.As the great spiral rolls across the stage in an endless circle, the performers face constant challenges. They are forced to anticipate and react to the movement of the metal wheel, which at times seems to obey and at other times seems to have a will of its own. At any moment the entire situation can change because of an unexpected move from either spiral and performer.
