Headfirst Editor's Pick
"Part of the epic Circus City Festival: domestic burnout meets acrobatic folklore in How A Spiral Works, knotting contemporary circus and Baltic ritual into a kinetic meditation on self-preservation and interdependence. One dancer, one aerialist, one rope in a three-person tornado of embodied self-neglect."

A event held at Circomedia on Friday 24th October. The event starts at 20:00.
One dancer, one aerialist, and one rope tethered together in R-evolving relationship. In this performance, the artists fight for time to care for themselves, care for each other - even under extreme circumstances.
How hard is it to care under tension? In the middle of a whirlwind? At great heights? While feeling pain?
Renowned British circus director Jason Dupree, acclaimed Latvian choreographer Alise Bokaldere, and the phenomenal Lithuanian aerialist Izabele Kuzelyte join forces, creating a unique, hypnotic, and powerful contemporary circus performance, blending contemporary dance, hair hanging, aerial rope, and reinvented Baltic folk music.

Start time: 8:00PM
Running time: 60mins (no interval)
