Knot on Hands

Brace for Impact

In "Brace for Impact", three acrobats search for the limits of balance. In their search, they find new ways to move forwards and through space. On this journey, they explore the (im)possibilities of the other and find out what it means to put all their weight in the hands of another. Knot on Hands shows an innovative and more organic form of partner acrobatics, emphasising the purity of movement and characterised by a unique body language.

"Brace for Impact" presents a physical conversation between three people who are constantly moving. Throughout the performance, the wordless conversation progresses, slowly creating a path across the stage. The balance between the three circus performers is constantly challenged and re-established, creating tensions and restrictions in their communication.
