About
Those in Glass Houses… is a celebration of glass and all its fragilities.
Combined with a giant pendulum, a ton of bricks, and the assurance of some protective eyewear; the glass is kept safe in the hands of the most trustworthy 2 jugglers around.
Brace yourself for swinging bricks, comedic catapults, and the orchestrated chaos of glass-shattering domino runs in this 45- minute adventure of controlled destruction.
