Work-in-Progress: Never Enough

Work-in-Progress: Never Enough

The circus and theater piece NEVER ENOUGH will premiere on 26-29 June 2025 at the Gaswerk cultural center in Winterthur. An aerial artist and a juggler explore the pursuit of more and ask: when is enough enough? They shed light on material greed, the pressure to perform and the need for recognition. The piece is a theatrical-artistic performance that focuses on the balance and dynamics of relationships.

For the piece, Heidi Happy will compose music especially for it and play it live. With the contrabass and trombone, the two players will enrich Heidi Happy’s composition and create new and expressive artistic moments.

NEVER ENOUGH invites the audience to reflect on their own definition of “enough”.
