Rompecabezas is an intimate energetic spectacle by a dancer and three circus artists, where success can be by a hair’s breadth.
The name means a puzzle or a head destroyer, which describes the content of the work as well as its creation process.
The work consists of three separate sections, which offer a wide range of circus skills, complemented with elements of suspense. Circus artists Kalle Lehto, Guillermo Leon and Poppy Plowman and dancer Minna Liimatainen all perform together, sometimes quite literally hanging from each other. June Horton-White is responsible for the sensual lighting design of the triptych-like work, and the jazzy electronic music and ambient are created by Josu Mämmi and Sami Tammela.
