Circa: Humans 2.0

Contemporary circus by Yaron Lifschitz with the Circa Ensemble

Ten bodies appear in a flash of light. For a fleeting moment they move in harmony and then sink into a writhing trance. Towers grow and crumble, bodies soar and are caught, while physical limits are pushed to the limit. Can we ever find a perfect balance or is adapting to constant change the only way forward? Created by circus visionary Yaron Lifschitz, "Humans 2.0" is intimate, primal and deeply connected to the challenge of being human. In this second chapter of Circa's internationally acclaimed program "Humans", the choreography of the bodies interweaves closely with the pulsating sounds of the composer and forefather of the Israeli techno scene, Ori Lichtik.
