Tickled Pink is a research and performance with 6 acrobats where following questions are asked:
How can the spectacular, with sublime elements, as an artistic and impactful method be appropriated again by circus, specifically acrobatics? What is spectacular? What is sublime?
What can a re-appropriated spectacular acrobatics bring about in the spectator? How can we guide this impact towards a connecting, euphoric experience with sublime veil? But also, what could be the downside of this reappraisal of the spectacular: the hyper-sexualized performative body, the fetishization of skill or the relapse into a purely entertaining action?
