Fish up a Tree is a joyful circus performance about the adventures of three friends and the art of collaboration. Working together is not always easy, especially when everyone has their own way of doing things. One day, the friends decide to build something truly special: a huge, peculiar mechanical contraption — each of them, of course, in their own unique style. The performance features aerial acrobatics, object manipulation and slackline, all unfolding around a mechanical circus “tree”.
Blind Gut Company is a contemporary circus group from Finland, founded in 2015. Their work explores the complexities of human life through contemporary circus, imaginative visual expression and a playful approach. The group creates touching and thought-provoking performances for audiences of all ages.
