This thrilling circus-influenced physical theatre piece features six performers on a dramatic tilting stage, appearing to defy the laws of gravity. When the imposing, suspended podium begins to spin, pivot, swing and elevate, the only way to withstand its forces is through agile movement. Faced by such instability, bodies lean, climb, hang and fall in this perilous dance of survival.

The French artist equally dedicated to the circus arts and contemporary dance, Yoann Bourgeois has long been fascinated by ideas of weightlessness and the physics of suspension. For this ingenious show, he challenges performers from both disciplines to meet the physical demands of his intriguing staging, each scenario choreographed to rousing tracks from Beethoven and Frank Sinatra.

"Először csak a zaj jelzi: a sötétben valami mozgásba lendült. Mert a világ így kezdődik: nem bummal, csak nyikorgással, recsegéssel-ropogással – mintha szétesni készülne a (színpad)technika. Aztán szép fokozatosan a zaj forrására is fény derül: a roppant masinának csupán az emberi alkatrészei lazultak ki, és görögnek gazdátlanul ide-oda, kiszolgáltatva a gravitációnak és a terepviszonyoknak. Demonstrálva, hogy a színpad valóban lejt, nincs csalás. Ez a színpad(technika) az előadás fő nézőcsalogató attrakciója."
