"Armour is the kind of work we'd like to see more of, both intelligent and extremely sensitive and relevant."

Arno Ferrera, Gilles Polet and Charlie Hession deconstruct toxic virility through an intensely physical performance.

In ARMOUR, the three circus performers bring into question how to be a man in our society, bringing forward new horizons for the notions of masculinity and virility. The trio confront the concept of toxic virility and its constituent elements of domination and control. In an intensely physical performance, the artists dismantle the mechanisms of (over)protection that hamper human relationships. In the process, they open up a space for vulnerability and fragility based on listening and trust. ARMOUR reaches states where sweetness, eroticism and self-deprecation offer a representation of a free and generous love, in joyful collusion with a closely-seated audience all around the performance space.
