Slipped
A story of hope
Sit down, take a deep breath, and yet still find no peace. Wars, climate change, the shift to the right, social division, inflation… and then there’s that damned chair, too.
Nothing feels the same as it used to. No sense of stability. Just this creeping feeling that control is slipping away – that your own life is slipping through your fingers like sand. ‘Entglitten’ captures this feeling – and transforms it into an evening full of humour, artistry and surprising lightness.
With one of the simplest everyday objects at its heart: the chair.
But this chair is different. It resists, disappears, reappears, contradicts, wobbles, plays along – and, through elaborately produced animations and mysterious tricks, becomes a living counterpart, an adversary, a mirror.
Slapstick meets moments of magic. Surprising acrobatics set against poetic imagery. An enchanting evening of theatre unfolds – tragicomic, intense, light-hearted and yet moving – telling of the loss of hope… and of how to find it again. A moving, humorous journey about falling down, getting back up and carrying on.

Colliding Stories
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.

Cirstal Circo
*Tutú* is a poetic solo clown show brimming with charm, humour and impressive circus artistry. María Sol Lence combines the elegance of classical ballet with the power of contemporary circus to create an imaginative character who touches people of all ages without needing many words. With extraordinary physical control, Cristal guides us through a world full of surprises: supple contortions, giant soap bubbles, daring balancing acts on bottles and spectacular aerial acrobatics on the aerial hoop merge into a performance that invites both wonder and laughter. A unique atmosphere emerges, blending absurd humour, subtle poetry and playful interaction, in which the audience becomes part of the story. *Tutú* is a lovingly staged show for the whole family – light-hearted, touching and full of magical moments that will linger in the memory long after the performance has ended.
Der Pepe Dome als Ort der wissenschaftlichen Forschung
Kann ein Zirkuszelt das Denken verändern? In ihrer Bachelorarbeit untersucht Sigrid Grün den Pepe Dome in München als transformativen Denkraum für einen Design-Thinking-Workshop mit Lehrkräften zum Thema Gesundheit. Der Artikel zeigt, wie ungewohnte Räume Perspektivwechsel, Kreativität und ehrliche Reflexion ermöglichen – jenseits institutioneller Routinen.
