Dogs never melt (8+)

In Dogs Never Melt, we play with the idea of human evolution, pushing it towards the figure of the superhero. 
But what do superheroes truly mean to us? 
How do we inhabit the idea of being super? 
Super what? 
With whom? 
And how many of us, at once?

In this piece, the lone, wandering hero gives way to a collective hero—
decidedly human.

Dogs Never Melt is a circus creation, performed as part of the graduation for the bachelor's program in Circus Arts. The performers, fourth-year students, are our contemporary superheroes: they bring the impossible to 
life through collaboration, trust, and shared risk.
