With playful energy, impressive acrobatics, comic timing and a joyful soundscape, two dancers create a magical world through the clever manipulation of simple balloons.
Their imaginations seem to know no bounds – resulting in a hypnotic, funny and uplifting performance full of falling, lifting, throwing, catching, stumbling, floating … and sometimes maybe even a little bit of flying.
Fall and Float was developed with the support of Baboró’s GROW Pathways to Production.
Mónica Muñoz is supported by Meitheal: A Branar Initiative 2022-2023.
