KNOT: Nikki & JD

Physically exhilarating and touchingly poignant, Knot is the internationally acclaimed debut circus and dance work by Nikki & JD. The pair use hand-to-hand circus skills, dance, and storytelling to tell the tale of an impossible choice: how can we be honest with ourselves without hurting those we love? Knot is a finely crafted theatrical journey through the struggles of commitment.

Created in collaboration with award-winning choreographer Ben Duke of Lost Dog Dance Company, Knot is a very modern affair told with delicate sensitivity through breath-taking acrobatics and heart wrenching dance.
