As part of the Ana Desetnica festival in Slovenia we got to visit Ljubljana, Novo Mesto and Sežana and Silvia also spoke on a panel about women in street theatre. Thanks so much for having us.

We recently spent some time in a rehearsal room trying out ideas - it’s always good to do a bit of R&D to get the creative juices flowing. Do you recognise the elastic we’re using? It’s from Mimbre’s FIRST SHOW, Sprung!

Alt text [main image] : Four female acrobats larking around in a rehearsal studio - they are tangled in armfuls of thick black elastic. One is held upside down by another, the other two are on each side. They seem to be busying themselves with tangling each other further in the elastic. Behind them is a gothic window in a brick wall.

We were so pleased to be part of Dance Digital, the first dance film festival from Digital Stage & Studio. Our short film BUMP, which celebrates the pregnant body while questioning the assumptions that people can make about them, was received really well by the audience and and were part of the post-show discussion. Thanks so much for having us!

📸 film stills, and from the event

Thank you so much to who sent us through these photos (apart from the first one!) from last weekend’s festival in Valladolid. Such a beautiful setting for Weight(less)!

If you look really closely you can see our director, the lesser-spotted .acro

Photo description [second image] : a woman wearing grey shorts and a top stretches towards the sky with an orange bag in her hand. We are looking at her back. Beyond her is a crowd of people against a blue sky, with another woman leaning on a flight case in front of them.

We won a prize!
Special Jury Mention for Mimbre from festival in Valladolid:
"A company that aims to rethink and reclaim the place of women in contemporary circus. In this edition of TAC, Mimbre has once again provided, as it has throughout its career, a lesson in integration and body normalization that places us in a world we should be aiming for."

Thank you, we are so honoured and touched! It means a lot to us from such a renowned festival with so many excellent companies.
And thank you to all the wonderful audiences who came out to see us, in sun, rain and thunder!! Always a joy to be here, we love you Valladolid!!
