Glorious Bodies

Old age/ageing is still taboo in our society and certainly within the circus world. Like top athletes, most acrobats stop training intensively after a certain age. How do the most perfect bodies transform? Can you ever make peace with your body as a human being? Can you be completely in harmony? Glorious Bodies sheds light on the process of ageing in a special way. Something that is happening to all of us right now, at this moment.

The performance is based on partner acrobatics and movement. It breaks clichés surrounding the older generation. An impressive, charming and humorous performance that shows what humans and the human body are capable of, and there is no age limit.
