Cirk La Putyka

Six breathtaking artists undertake an acrobatic and musical marathon – all on a giant treadmill!

 .

Inspired by Christopher McDougall’s quote, “We run more when times are tough,” Cirk La Putyka features a monumental treadmill at the heart of its set design, serving as a metaphor for our relationship with the passage of time and reflecting the frenetic pace of our contemporary lives. On stage, like tireless marathon runners, four acrobats and two musicians engage in a relentless race, covering kilometres while performing dizzying stunts, intoxicating dances, and fiery musical scores.
