Since its foundation five years ago, Recirquel Company Budapest with the leading of its founder and artistic director Bence Vági has toured to several places around Hungary and the world. Vági's aim was to develop a unique, permissive expression of Eastern–Central Europe's cultural heritage that would narrow the distance between physical theatre, dance and circus – and to introduce this new genre of contemporary circus to the world.
Set among the 10-meter-high slowly crumbling firewalls of Budapest, the troupe's artists are on a shared journey around the hidden aspects of their own personalities while searching to fulfil their unreachable desire of flying. In accordance with the philosophy of the genre, the creators do not tell a linear story. Eternal symbols of pre-historic times and representations of well-known fairy tale and mythical situations assist the audience in feeling at ease in a world which is trying to engage its emotions rather than their reason.
