As they search for balance, they give shape to absurd fantasies, hopeful desires and everything that could still come. A playful and hopeful circus performance about looking ahead together, daring to dream and making room for something lighter.
About the company
Monki Business moves along the boundary between acrobatics and theatre. The company of acrobat and theatre maker Benjamin 'Monki' Kuitenbrouwer creates performances that are socially engaged, physically challenging, vulnerable, absurd and loving. In his work, hope is central: not as a naive ideal, but as a choice against cynicism and indifference.
