DOGMA
Unfolding inside an artificial human terrarium, DOGMA exposes the shifting territories of identity and truth, asking — How are our beliefs formed, and what happens when the systems we trust cease to support us? Through this lens, we enter a world where rules are unquestioned, punishment is theatrical, and faith is an acrobatic act of endurance. By weaving the visceral language of circus with a poignant choreographic approach, the company makes risk the driving force of a narrative that feels both mythic and intimate.
