A moving performance about the strength of our bodies, about seeing and being seen, about ageing and old age.
Old age is still a taboo subject in our society, especially within the world of the circus. Like top athletes, most acrobats stop training intensively after a certain age. So how do these perfect bodies change? Can you ever make peace with your own body?
‘GLORIOUS BODIES’ sheds light on the process of ageing in a special way. Something that happens to all of us, now and at any time. Six acrobats, each aged between 54 and 67, put on an impressive, charming and humorous performance that shows what human beings and the human body are capable of - and there is clearly no age limit on that.
