A performer moves in a small circle with balancing and falling bamboo sticks. Not only does he manipulate the bamboo sticks, but he also manipulates the focus and attention of the audience. A surprising sound design makes the seduction perfect.

​

What began as a solo by Josef Stiller has developed into a duet in collaboration with Moritz Grenz as sound designer. An architect is now added for a new production, because in "Responsive Round - The Next Step" (working title) the team is now working at full speed under the name KLUB GIRKO on the question:  How do we open the space to a larger audience? How do we reach the viewers in the 3rd row?
