Top Down takes a very different look at power, status, and the roles we play every day — literally turning things upside down through jaw-dropping acrobatics. Three performers, constantly shift balance; lifting, flying, catching and questioning who’s holding the power at any given moment. Using their incredible strength, precision, and using Icarian games, they blur the lines between control and chaos… without ever telling you what to think.
Smart, striking, and seriously impressive this is circus that makes you look twice.
Up. Down. Nothing is quite what it seems.

Top Down questions roles, the places we take and the places we leave behind, it talks

about the relations of domination and submission in the social field, whether at work or

in everyday life. In the universe where the relationships are dominated by the laws of a restrictive hierarchy, the slightest breach can create the possibility for change. Presenting a leg, extending a hand, smiling, become multiples invitations to dare.
