Drawing inspiration from the Japanese art of kintsugi, in which broken ceramics are repaired with gold to emphasise how we are made stronger and more beautiful by our damage, the show stretches the boundaries of circus storytelling.

An ensemble of nine brilliant acrobats gathers at a purgatory-like bus stop, all trying to leave something behind but unsure of where to go next. Over the course of a day and a night, they must find a way forward together, unpacking the complexities of their individual histories before collectively meeting a new dawn.

Set in a dreamlike landscape that flits between past and present, a myriad of circus disciplines interact, showcasing both individual brilliance and collective innovation. Haunting, playful, ethereal and ultimately deeply uplifting, this is a show to reinforce your sense of wonder in an oftentimes difficult world.
