Mumbai Express & Mano

Circo Aereo

Mumbai Express:

One hundred metres of rope, two record players, two women and one DJ. In Mumbai Express, aerial acrobats Sanna Silvennoinen and Viivi Roiha get the production well and truly off the ground. Movement, weightlessness and DJ Muffler's music generate a sense of flow that is as beguiling as a landscape sweeping past.

Mano:

Mano e tono, the hand and the sound. Fingers tapping on a clarinet as the slow burn music carries the acrobat across the space. Though he originally hails from Finland, circus artist Mika Kaski has pursued both his studies and his professional career in France. Innovative musician and composer Tapani Rinne works the clarinet, creating a multi-faceted sonar landscape with just a single instrument.
