Colliding Stories
Two bodies. Two stories. One encounter.
What happens when two people meet whose paths were never really meant to cross?
Colliding Stories is an intimate contemporary circus and dance performance by Silvia Grachová and Yann Szuter. Using the Cyr wheel, aerial hoop, movement and multilingual text, they explore encounters, connections and friction – both personal and universal.
Between closeness and distance, lightness and conflict, a shared language emerges: raw, honest and poetic. The stage becomes a space for relationships – with oneself, with others and with the world.
Minimalist in its staging, powerful in its impact: bodies and words in space – stories that affect us all.
