A performance based on the principles of contemporary circus, where the equipment stops being a mere object for skill demonstration and becomes a means of expression and personal reflection on how each performer perceives the concepts of fear, time, family, and suffocation.
Presentation: Galini – Theodora Benetatou
Performers: Ilias Kastritis – Jugglin, Ana Balmaceda – Handstands, Revekka Gogou – Trapeze, Pablo Rubio Ruiz – Rope
