Our Performances

A story of collective strength

Via live music, aerial and balance acrobatics and video works, a visual world is created where the artists tackle questions on a micro and macro level about a kinder and more sustainable world.

Threads connect, threads repair and threads tangle. Glass can crash, glass can clank and glass can clink.

"Trådar" and "Glas" are two performing arts experiences beyond the ordinary. We meet jugglers, acrobats and clowns in a vivid video scenography. To chamber music by composers from the Baltic Sea region, our minds are expanded in two magical circus concerts for all people aged 3-100 years.

In the book "God’s Disobedient Rib", the reader follows along as Gunilla Thorgren reads the Bible from her feminist point of view. A large ensemble of circus artists and actors tells the story through words, acrobatics and music.

How a book about feminism and the Bible became a hit show

Acrobats and synchronized swimmers in and above Stockholm's waters

"Aquanauts" was born from a unique collaboration between synchronized swimmers and circus artists, who created a site-specific performance performed in water, air and fire.

In a touching, sensitive work, Movements uses acrobatics, storytelling and physical theatre to explore the human connection in extreme times. Movements follows the real journeys of displaced people who arrived in Malmö during the autumn of 2015 and the volunteers who were there to greet them.

Refuge and hope

Cocky commitment is our first core value. To question, explore, challenge and critically examine. Therefore, it is also essential for us to work with activism in various ways far outside the stage.

We are capable of much more than we believe if we dare to challenge our limits. For people in extraordinary circumstances, sometimes there is no choice but to take the leap.

Underart is an ode to what happens after a crash landing. What happens thanks to a crash landing? Based on the director Olle Strandberg's own lived story.

Undermän is the true story of three male partner acrobats who lost their partners, and consequently their careers and dreams as well. In a quest to regain their zest for life, they decide to create something completely new.

A dizzying circus drama about daring more than you dare

The circus artists play the roles of various body parts such as blood cells and protoplasm. This enlightening and creative juxtaposition brings interpretive magic to the gorgeous imagery of live performers together with footage of the human body.

HC Andersen's tale about the little mermaid becomes a story about magic and genuine feelings. The focus is on Andersen's poetic, disturbing and endlessly beautiful story about the mermaid's longing for the prince's love and an immortal soul – a tale about elements that can never be reconciled.

Shakespeare for the 21st century. With trapeze artists, acrobats, actors, mimes, dancers and jugglers in the roles. In a high, sloping stage space, we tell with bodies, movement and words - Shakespeare's story of young, consuming love. Fierce. Beautiful. Dizzying.

Would we be different people without clocks? That and several other questions about time are the basis for 00:00. A circus performance that takes place in the eye of the storm, in the fraction of a second.
