No Dutch Required

Two sisters balance, literally and figuratively, between their shared history and their personal differences. With handstands, acro-dance and subtle irony, they reflect on their unconventional upbringing in a travelling circus family, where family rituals offered something to hold on to. Sometimes to the point of obsession. Why do we cling so stubbornly to those habits? And how do we honour the rituals of the people we love, even when we don’t fully understand them?

In this physical show, the sisters search together for a shared ritual. Melody wants calm, tea and a neatly laid table. Lily wants to let loose, looking for energy and movement. As they share the stage, their worlds collide. How do you keep your balance when the other moves in a different direction? How do you stay upright when you have to carry something together? To complete the ritual of the show, they must embrace their differences. And so the show grows into a new ritual in which they find meaning together in a world that is constantly in motion.
