The Genesis is a high-energy contemporary circus experience that dives deep into human connection, resilience, and the power of unity. 17 world-class acrobats bring the stage to life, creating stunning visuals and intricate group formations that push the limits of movement.
Through jaw-dropping acrobatics and heartfelt storytelling, The Genesis reflects our modern world where individuality shines, but true strength emerges when we come together.
The Genesis features an original soundscape that combines classical violin, piano, and various acoustic instruments with voices in song and recitation. Elements of jazz and rhythm and blues are woven in, along with moments inspired by club music, creating an engaging atmosphere for the audience.
With powerful female bases and gravity-defying male flyers, we challenge expectations and celebrate diversity in body, background, and artistry. Audiences of all ages have laughed, cried, and leapt to their feet in appreciation.
