Festivalis Cirkuliacija (premjera): ''Konstrukt'' | Circus Kolektiv (Kroatija)
“Konstrukt” | Circus Kolektiv (Croatia)
Age guidance: 9+
Show duration: 50 mins
For a circus artist, especially an aerialist, a fall is the most undesirable event to happen on stage. In “Konstrukt”, it is the emphasis of the whole show. The work is reimagining the superhero image of circus artists, and instead puts them in a position of miserable madmen, who share their struggle with the world, desperate for compassion, clarification and catharsis. Acceptance, giving up, stubbornly defying to the point of exhaustion, or…a realization: the concepts of success and failure are merely constructs of the mind.
“Konstrukt” speaks about failure and dealing with wrong choices. Aerial equipment in the show is fragile, unsafe and unsuitable for use. The characters are fools who keep trying to perform on it and invest a lot of effort into a battle that is already lost. They ultimately face a question – how to deal with failure?
