“Central to our artistic exploration is the concept of circus dramaturgy—an approach that delves into the psychological and emotional dimensions of the human experience. Our performances question the traditional confines of circus, exploring the realms of illusion and blurring the lines between what is real and what is imagined. By intertwining physicality, symbolism, and metaphor, we seek to unravel the complexities of the human condition.”
