Humans 2.0 by Circa
Student Matinee | Suggested Grades: 3–12This work by Australian circus innovators Circa explores human connection through a symphony of acrobatics, sound and light. First, ten bodies appear in a flash of light. They move in harmony and then descend into a sinuous trance. Towers grow and decay, bodies leap and are caught as physical limits are pushed to their extreme. Can we ever find a perfect balance or is adapting to constant change the only way forward? Created by circus visionary Yaron Lifschitz, Humans 2.0 is deeply engaged with the challenge of being human.
