PENDULUM
Luis Sartori do Vale and Thom Monckton
Dec 1st 19h00, 2nd and 5th 20h30
PENDULUM is two aristocrats’ cavalcade of self-reinforcing idiocracies and a peculiar fascination with everything that sways, cradles or swings. Two noblemen set out on a journey of inexplicable importance. In the familiar surroundings of upper-class comfort not even stupidity stands in the way of these two and their ingenious discoveries. Slowly, it dawns on them however, that not everything is as it once was, for what is Nobility without riches, servants and reason?
All the things that constantly move back and forth is the essence of restlessness! Yet, we find in these motions an intrinsic comforting, as if they remind us of an experience before consciousness.
The performance aims to combine the explosiveness and action of circus with the human physical response to gentle constant movement.

MICHAEL MIGHT
PISTE KOLLEKTIIVI
Dec 2nd and 3rd 19h00 and 5th 16h30
Incredible Michael Might and his Amazing Magic Show
combines circus, great illusions, acrobatics and live music. Artists coming from Arctic Circle, Rovaniemi City, entertain us with several historical magic stunts from levitation to restoration and quick changes. All done with good humour, amazing sharpness and diligent. The company is well known for their skill to entertain.
Audience enjoyment and their well being are in the forefront of the iron strong performers - very enthusiastic magician Michael Might, his charming assistant Sarah Sharp and musician Kevin Venom, whose brilliant presence is like a glue holding the show together.
This performance doesn't require skill in languages, non-verbal show suits to everybody and time goes fast with the amazing performers even with a bad company.

ONLY BONES V1.6-
MARINA CHERRY
Dec 4th 19h00 Premiere
Dec 5th 19h00 and 21h30
Hailing from Missoula, Montana, currently based in Stockholm, Marina works with extreme flexibility, combined with dance and physical theatre to create an idiosyncratic style of performance.
Intriguingly engulfing, sporadically disturbing, this quirky conglomeration creates a mishmash of corporal and cerebral manipulations- a follow-up project to the original Only Bones (v.1.0) created by Thomas Monckton.
Bursting the bubbles of banality, in a balance between theatrical and physical, Marina nudges the limits, researching innovation amongst extreme constraints, using only one light, it is a maximization of the minimal.
Creation and performing: Marina Cherry
Director: Thom Monckton
Music: Compilation
Support: Riga's Cirks, NouNous Festival
Premiere 4.12.2020
Duration 40 minutes
Age recommendation +8 yrs.
