Commissioned by the University of Winchester as a launch event for The Performance Gymnasium “a purpose built performance space housed in the former college gym” Some Short Exercises in Love is a spectacle of acrobatic mathematics and physical formulae, blending live music, visual theatre, conkers, kissing and chalk.

Originally produced in November 2004.
