Impulse

In Impulse, a rough machine changes in a playmate, a counterforce, a dance partner. The performers will climb, swing, fall and get up again. Exciting, funny and sometimes magical.

The performers get inspired by the impressive force and precision of the forklift truck, which even make the most unexpected, acrobatic movements possible. At other moments the machine transforms into a surprising smooth dance partner. Unique encounters are emerging between human bodies and the sturdy metal forks of the forklift truck.

The show is performed within a 8m diameter circle on a hard surface like concrete, asphalt or flat street stones. The audience is sitting all around.
