Vagabond Matter was supposed to be a show about science. The seismic knowledge gained since the scientific revolution – information that has changed our understanding of reality, of what we are, and of our place in the Cosmos. The research alone transformed our perception of existence. It also took quite a long time… In the meantime, a lot of life happened. Life that has woven itself into right the heart of Vagabond. The journey travelled through great beauty and deep pain. Through cosmos to chaos and back again. It danced with mortality, love and the towering truth of impermanence. Vagabond Matter has been created in collaboration with a team of international circus artists, through a process unlike any other we’ve undergone. It is completely different to anything we’ve created previously. At the same time, it’s the most authentically, honestly and fully Acrojou production ever. And so, we present our most personal production yet. It’s taken many leaps - from the artists and team. It is, in fact, one big leap. A leap of understanding, a leap of process, and a leap of faith. It is full of our love. We hope you enjoy it. Available now for UK and International touring |
