Nikki & JD - Knot

Knot uses circus, dance and storytelling to examine love and conflict between two people seemingly in a relationship. However, there is a twist in the tale, as the audience discover that the two acrobatic performers are actually a single 30-something woman and a gay man. This is a finely crafted theatrical journey through the struggles of commitment and asks the question:: How can we be honest with ourselves without hurting those we love? 

After working together for four years and gaining experience with other British contemporary circus companies, including Barely Methodical Troupe and Square Peg Circus, Nikki Rummer & Jean-Daniel Broussé (working together as Nikki & JD) created Knot, their first show. It was made in collaboration with the award-winning choreographer Ben Duke of Lost Dog Dance Company.
