With performers leaping off the minute stage nearly into the laps of audience members, and occasionally flashing body parts which would normally be neatly tucked away,  Close to the Bone  is a joy to experience. It’s like a condensed and intensified  Circus Oz  in one neat little morsel-like serving. Although the whole production was whipped up in just a few...
