Be Flat brings a combination of freerunning, acrobatics, and musical improvisation. Ward Mortier and Thomas Decaesstecker honed their freerunning skills on the streets and later trained as acrobats in Canada. Together, they explore how we can relate to the spaces we move in differently.

Handstand Acrobatics x Hiphop Dance - Melody Nolan and Kelly Bigirindavyi come together in an energetically choreographed mix of house, hiphop and handstand acrobatics, specially designed for this evening.

Experimental Aerial Acrobatics - suspended from a trapeze, Hanna de Vletter transforms into various images of a dove, from a flying rat to a symbol of peace. Coo coo!

Acrobatic Duet - Charlie Hession and Swantje Kawecki combine contact improvisation and acrobatics. For this evening, they create a duet that explores how we reveal different aspects of our personalities when interacting with family, colleagues, friends, or when we are alone.

Spraakuhloos - spoken word full of linguistic virtuosity and mental gymnastics. Kylie Lyandra and Keanu Rae give voice to the role of transformation in our lives. They examine how the person we are now relates to who we were as children and the person we will see in the mirror in 20 years.
