The stage is an empty space. The artists are the show.

We follow 17 acrobats as they move through an abstract emotional landscape. The eventual acceptance of the need for the Other brings a sense of jubilation. Furthermore we discover the fact that as humans, there is little that one person can do by themselves.

With a light design that creates a crossover between a mystic cathedral feeling and club nightlife, surrounding and embrace the performers. The original music is a continuous soundscape, blending classical violin, piano, and other acoustic instruments with voice in song or recitation. Jazz and rhythm’n’blues elements appear in club-themed moments, adding energy and groove.

Prepare for a truly unique acrobatic experience.
