The fragility and vulnerability of the iron rod can only be felt through thin skin. Meditative movement installation, images that burn into the retina of your eye. Eliška Brtnická's internationally acclaimed work Thin Skin is presented for the first time in Hungary, as part of MUCH Circus Festival. 

***You can attend the show with a daily ticket of MUCH Festival that is valid for all the rest of the programs as well. Here is the detailed line-up.

The work of Eliška Brtnická is characterized by strong visual imagery. In Thin Skin, for which she invited Alžběta Ticha and Filip Zahradnický, she focuses on the trapeze as a kinetic and action sculpture. The trapeze is deconstructed, its parameters radically altered , with a long thin iron rod emerging as the main protagonist. A hypnotic performance about constantly changing non-stability that requires repeated adaptation. A flow of meaning and non-meaning.

MUCH Circus Festival is dedicated to strengthening regional cooperation and promoting the mobility of contemporary circus in the region. Eliška Brtnická is a performer, choreographer, dramaturge and director. She graduated in non-verbal theatre from the HAMU in Prague, where she completed her PhD in 2018, focusing on contemporary circus.
