GREGARIOUS
Gregarious is not epic, it is not heroic. Gregarious is an honest, sweaty and playful show about the human side of sports. Through acrobatics and comedy the two artists focus on their relationship, and on its constant shifts between collaboration and conflict. They mix a subtle playful style of acting with a high technical level in their circus disciplines: teeterboard, Chinese pole and partner acrobatics.
