A balloon, hands, feet, a body. On stage, everything is transformed into a puppet.
A journey on the boundary between puppetry and circus featuring an unlikely duo: a balloon and a trapeze artist. A puppet-balloon comes to life, growing in sync with its falls, discoveries, and newfound balance. This acrobatic journey allows it to soar towards autonomy and discover its identity, reminding the little acrobats of life that any elevation requires a solid foundation. Set against a musical landscape inspired by the worlds of Moondog and Erik Satie, In Suspension explores how our relationships with others enrich us and help us grow.
