THE GENESIS
Experience the breathtaking journey of The Genesis, a one-hour contemporary circus spectacle that explores the depths of human connection, resilience, and the power of unity.
Witness jaw-dropping acrobatics seamlessly interwoven with moments of profound human expression, reflecting a modern world where individual brilliance finds its ultimate strength in collective harmony.
On stage, seventeen world-class artists conjure stunning visual poetry through intricate group formations and feats that defy the limits of human movement and emotion. Challenging conventions with powerful female bases and gravity-defying male flyers, The Genesis celebrates the beauty of diversity in physicality, heritage, and artistic expression.
The atmosphere of The Genesis is richly enhanced by a lighting design that evokes both the grandeur of a cathedral and the vibrant pulse of nightlife, intimately embracing and celebrating the performers. An original soundscape envelops The Genesis, where the elegance of classical strings and piano intertwines with the raw emotion of acoustic sounds and voices.
The Genesis premiered in Copenhagen at Baltoppen LIVE on July 4th, 2024, and continues its acclaimed tour across Europe.
