Circus City Presents: ARMOUR by Arno Ferrera & Gilles Polet

Armour explores issues of masculinity and virility, with the desire to offer a different perspective.

Drawing from the choreography of wrestlers and gladiators, three performers navigate and dissolve obstacles to connection and vulnerability. The audience surrounds them in a circle, close enough to witness moments of deep intimacy unfold.

Through dance, balance and hand-to-hand acrobatics, they shift between power and tenderness, play and seduction. What emerges is a representation of a love that is free and generous, universal and plural, in a joyful complicity with the audience.

“To know love, men must be able to let go of the will to dominate. They must be able to choose life over death” bell hooks
