What a MOVE_MEANT

Contemporary circus meets language. Words fall, acrobats catch – and are caught.

Chris and Iris introduce themselves not just through movement but by offering glimpses into their artistic practice and daily training.

This performance features world-class hand-to-hand acrobatics, object manipulation, and playful word acrobatics.

Wooden blocks are stacked into towering structures, balanced to the edge of impossibility, and inevitably collapse. Selected objects shape the stage: a stool that is more than a stool, a cable that demands to be tamed, a special guitar that provides live music and sound.

A piece that is intimate yet multilayered.
Raw yet daring.
Fragile yet bold.
A short story filled with as many punctuations as letters.
