DIASTIMA

A mobile stage for balance, trust, and human connection through Dance, Acrobatics and Music

A performance that does not explain, but invites you to feel:
How balance is formed and how it wavers. How a space without walls opens up when people truly meet.

An embrace, a touch – sometimes light and fragile, sometimes powerful and grounding.

Three bodies lean, breathe, climb, glide. They ascend: a handstand on a narrow wooden beam; higher still, on the body of another who is itself searching, holding, balancing.

Bodies on wood. Bodies on bodies. Tenderness on strength. Risk on trust. DIASTIMA opens spaces and leaves you with a sense of lightness.

Driven by an infinite passion for innovation in physical, dance, and circus arts;

the team crafts an adaptive artwork that evolves with its environment. It invites the audience to experience the power of shared expression and the profound fascination of togetherness.

Voices from the audience:

“Fabulous – reassuring – weightless”

 “A blend of artistry and elegance.”

“a sense of wonder, connection, and a whirlwind of vitality that stayed long time afterward”
