About

Aerial dance meets emotional storytelling in this hypnotic duet about tenderness and resilience.

When chaos reigns, what does it mean to care for ourselves — to truly connect with others? How does compassion manifest in the eye of the storm, or when pain becomes part of who we are?

In an intimate duet of dancer, aerialist, and single rope, a visceral relationship unfolds, woven from trust, resistance, and release. Their bodies intertwine in a spiraling choreography of suspension and surrender—a physical and emotional helix of profound connection.

"How a Spiral Works"  blends hair hanging, aerial acrobatics, contemporary dance, and haunting reinterpretations of Baltic folk songs. It is a poetic act of care and defiance -  visually arresting, emotionally stirring and deeply human.

Created by British director Jason Dupree, Latvian choreographer Alise Madara Bokaldere, and Lithuanian aerialist Izabele Kuzelyte, this debut collaboration resonates powerfully within the contemporary performance landscape.

Presented at Carnaval Sztukmistrzów as part of Baltic Circus on the Road, a project coordinated by Rīgas Cirks (Latvia) and supported by the Baltic Culture Fund.
