SANFORD — Few musical ensembles earn top marks for their hoverboard skills or “deft choreography,” but this is no ordinary ensemble. Part chamber music group, part devised theatre company, part modern dance troupe, part circus act, The Fourth Wall blends music, theatre, dance, and acrobatics into a new hybrid art form. You can catch them on stage at the Sanford Performing Arts Center at 3 pm Saturday, January 20.

In their award-winning variety show, “Fruit Flies Like a Banana,” this trio of musicians creates new interdisciplinary works and reinterprets classic repertoire — all performed in an order chosen by the audience — to make music that leaps off the stage.

“Fruit Flies Like a Banana” premiered at the IndyFringe Theatre Festival and jumped across the pond to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2022, where it earned accolades that are rippling around the world. Come see what the international buzz is all about!
