Sawdust Symphony

Craftsmanship confronting circus, investigating the process of vision to construction. Prepare to drown in sawdust as this playful performance aims to entice an ardent discourse on satisfaction, frustration, and the smell of fresh wood. Blinded by an obsession to produce a perfect creation, characters will repurpose themselves and their surroundings to conceive an immersive hands-on experience.

"With their piece, the three circus artists symbolized the collaboration between people and nature. A symbiosis that couldn't be more beautiful!" Vorarlberg Online

"Sawdust Symphony is unique; I have not seen anything like it on stage, in the circus ring or anywhere else. There were echoes of Dada, Samuel Beckett and even Alien but there were moments of breathtaking brilliance, inspired originality and astounding wit. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant." Arts Talk Magazine

"The circus- and theatrical performance of the trio is phenomenal, stunning. We want to see more of this world of magical illusions!" KULTUR - Zeitschrift für Kultur und Gesellschaft
