Runners is a vivid contemporary circus performance combining exceptional juggling, striking visual objects, and live sound. Two jugglers find themselves bound to the rules of running machines, while a musician orchestrates them through a series of surreal games and playful experiments.
The show explores the poetry and precision of running and juggling — two deeply human actions that involve coordination, rhythm, and emotion. Whether chasing, escaping, or standing still, the act of running evokes adrenaline, desire, fear, and release.
As the performers move on running machines, their speed, balance, and throws are challenged, creating a unique, high-energy performance where the ground shifts and logic turns upside down.
Created by Hippana Maleta, Runners is a celebration of motion, sound, and human connection
