PACE – Below Zero

PACE is the first production of the Scandinavian made circus company Below Zero. The show is an intimate duett with the hand to hand couple Axel and Sara. It touches on the idea of relationships - status, power imbalances, consent, and equality. Though the show concerns a lot of heavy subjects the piece is filled with humour, warmth, feelings, original movements and the highest level of modern circus.

To see PACE is seeing our human heritage. It’s a story of two people as well as a story about society, of equality, where society is going and where we wish society as a whole can go. With music ranging over different genres the soundscape is unpredictable which makes the performance even more alive as electric beats mixes with Scandinavian folk music.
