We meet five circus artists and a musician in a raw world built of trusses, metal pipes and wires. Through acrobatics, aerial acrobatics, hair hanging and contortionism, they move with, against and despite the structures. What does it take to keep the balance when what seems stable can suddenly collapse?
Tipping Point - Balancing in a Time of Change is a circus performance about structures - our human structures and what holds our societies and democracies together. Why do they look the way they do? What keeps them in balance?
In a tensegrity structure, the form is held together by tension, balance and forces that pull in different directions. The slightest change can cause the entire building to fall. What happens when the most fundamental collapses? Who gets trapped, and who finds freedom? Tipping Point serves as a reminder that nothing is inevitable and that change is possible.
Actually, it's pretty simple. Regardless of size, every action can be part of a larger change.
