Tangled Up

Company ALUD

Een acrobaat zweeft hoog in de lucht aan een trapeze tijdens een buitenvoorstelling, terwijl een groot publiek toekijkt.

Een groot publiek staat in een cirkel om twee mensen heen. De ene persoon hangt van een touw, dat door de ander vastgehouden wordt.
Cato Crevits
With a freestanding structure in the middle of the space and the audience surrounding it, two performers present in ‘Tangled Up’ a completely different style of aerial acrobatics, using humour, strength, and surprising tenderness.

Extra informatie

Nederlandse prèmiere

By combining aerial acrobatics, dance, and partner acrobatics, Company ALUD creates a distinctive style. They show that it does not have to be a performance of impressive solos and dramatic height. Instead, they present a form that is powerful and intimate, where movement becomes a conversation. The two performers engage in a game of connection, teasing, testing, and surprising each other. Humour, softness, and poetic moments emerge from the unexpected. They move from energetic, almost challenging scenes to quiet, enchanting moments.

Fun fact! This is the first time we are presenting aerial acrobatics on the Torenpodium.

The show will premiere on Saturday 8 August during Boulevard.

About the artist

Company ALUD is a collaboration between Daniel Fernández (ES) and Seraphim Richter (DE). For several years, they have been developing their own style in aerial acrobatics: technically demanding and full of humour and nuance. They wanted to bring their work closer to the audience, more direct, playful, and outdoors. ‘Tangled Up’ was developed during several residencies in Belgium.
