Brace for Impact

In Brace for Impact three acrobats search for the limits of balance. In their quest of an equilibrium they find new ways of moving forward and travelling through space. On their journey they explore each other’s (im) possibilities and find out what it means to put all their weight in someone else’s hands.

Knot on Hands shows an innovative and more organic form of partner acrobatics, while emphasizing the pureness of the movement, and distinguishes itself using a unique physical language.

Brace for Impact presents you a physical conversation between three people who keep on moving. Throughout the performance, the wordless conversation progresses, and slowly, a pathway is created across the stage. The balance between the three circus artists is constantly being challenged and restored, creating tension and constriction within their communication.
