Graceful dancers and graceful jumps? Nothing like it! Lift trucks, tension belts and sledgehammers are at the centre of «Ballett». In FahrAwaY's new production, seven artists stir up a lot of dust: an unusual circus act, spectacular and absurd, daring and poetic, thoughtful and funny, with gripping, pulsating live music. «Ballett» delivers a densely packaged circus performance to a strange place - a deserted country road or a transshipment point in an industrial estate? A near future? The arrivals unflinchingly unpack, fantasizing a whole world, building towers and tearing them down again. The music created using adventurous instruments literally travels across the stage, the events appear in ever-new light. Even the audience, sitting on both sides of the long stage like spectators at the side of a road, has completely different perspectives. «Ballett» is an experience that touches and inspires people of all ages without any specific language knowledge. A poetic «perpetuum mobile» with industrial charm.
