Ripples sets sail for hope, for action, and for change!
⛵💚🌎 Welcome on board! Grandma Sita very much enjoyed Ripples within the ship’s magnificent framework during their stop at Copenhagen. Ripples sets sail for hope, for action, and for a change!
➡️ Ripples is a contemporary circus performance about eco-grief and utopia, sailing across the Baltic Sea to inspire people to act for a more sustainable future.
🤸✨ A magical universe of circus, dance, physical theatre, music and storytelling unfolds from aft to bow and all the way up to the top of the masts.
✅ The aim of the tour is to question the values our society is based upon and to inspire curiosity and discussions about sustainability in the present. Ripples create a positive climate ripple effect across the sea.
🌎 Ripples experiments on creating a whole new standard of sustainability as touring artists and provides meeting points for collaboration and exchange with local audiences.
⛵ The tour sails from the harbour to the harbour with S/V Swallow, a two-masted wooden sailing ship from 1926. Swallow acts as a site-specific stage, accommodation and means of transport for the group.
