URBOTEK
Urbotek takes place in an alternative shadow world of modern urban culture, where characters collide with working life and search for fulfillment in radical ways. Race Horse Company’s trademark style combines ’acrobatics with attitude’ with abstract depictions of our society. Their ambition is to present a fresh, thought-provoking work that blends the borders of contemporary and traditional circus in ways that are surprisingly touching and thoroughly entertaining.
