To Untouch is a live performance exploring new and different ways of keeping physical connections and complicity between each other, when the impulse of direct physical touch has to be restrained.
This show was originally created specifically for Greenwich+Docklands Festival September 2020. It has been created in direct opposition to Mimbre’s usual ways of working; instead of exploring what happens when one body is carried by another, these virtuosic acrobats are now examining what happens when they are not so reliant on physical contact, instead mimicking the very idea of ‘touch’ whilst remaining untouched.
Please note: This is an alternative to our show Lifted in the case of restrictions made on touch when performing during and after the Covid-19 pandemic.
