MAELSTROM (9-109) - ALUD Company

Two men meet. What starts as a simple meeting quickly derails into a physical whirlpool of humor, strength, and subtlety. They collide, circle, and search for a hold, in movements that are as explosive as they are fragile. They end up in a spiral of humorous, energetic, enchanting moments. Witty and moving. Company Alud mixes aerial straps, partner acrobatics, dance, and physical theater into an energetic language that plays with expectations around masculinity. With humor and a dose of daring, Maelstrom poses an open question to the audience: Masculinity, what is that actually? An identity, a hero complex, a language of strength? Does it also offer space for care, sensitivity, and connection? Can it be a mix of all the above or is it just a label? Discover how vulnerability can be just connecting.
