Introduction

Don't bury your head in the sand—turn the world upside down!

Ostrich Complex by the French Collectif d’équilibristes is a breathtakingly skillful and hilariously comical performance that refuses to bury its head in the sand and instead turns the world on its head. Eight circus acrobats present a hypnotic group choreography that dances, sings, plays, runs, and spins—on their hands. Come experience an entirely new perspective on the world!

Collectif d’équilibristes is a contemporary circus group founded in France, made up of handstand artists. The loneliness of practicing handstands, often seen as a solo discipline, inspired this group of long-time acquaintances to establish Collectif d’équilibristes and create collaborative group performances. Finnish circus artist Jatta Borg, who has lived and worked in France for years, is one of the founding members of the collective.

The event is organized by Cirko.
