break

Autobiographical dance, theatre and circus.

A STORY TOLD FROM THE INSIDE OUT, ABOUT A BODY REACHING BREAKING POINT 

With profound vulnerability Ceci takes us inside the experience of being an acrobat, showing us what it feels like to fly through the air and be caught, the weightlessness of our dreams, and the inevitable impact when we fall.

Break is a meditation on ambition and human expression. It reveals the consequences of the expectations we have of others, ourselves, and the circus performers we pay to watch.

“a brave and brilliantly executed work that examines the wider issue of the nature of humanity and how we define ourselves.”
