The Genesis

Circus/acrobatics. Denmark

For audiences aged 4 and above

This large-scale production uses the language of circus to explore themes of human connection, resilience, and the power of community. Usually performed in major theatres, it’s now coming to La Mercè to present spectacular acrobatics in the Fòrum Park, a venue that pays tribute to movement itself. These seamlessly woven acts convey a message of profound humanity: an individual shines most brightly when part of collective harmony. Seventeen artists from a wide range of countries push the boundaries of movement to reimagine contemporary circus, creating strikingly beautiful images through intricate group formations. All set to a soundscape where the elegance of classical strings and piano intertwines with the emotion of acoustic sounds and voices.
