ACTING FOR CLIMATE (NO/SE/FIN/US)

BARK

Open air performance BARK is a poetic, spectacular and thought-provoking contemporary circus performance about reconnecting with each other and with nature.

BARK is built in a local forest, where the forest and the trees are the main characters together with the artists who work with acrobatics, vertical dance and physical theater, with experimental soundscapes and poetic text.
The artists bicycle from forest to forest throughout May – so you can find them in the landscape near you!

This presentation is happening with the support of Perform Europe as part of the BARK Sustainable Touring project.
