SHAME - CABARET

Shame-cabaret is the third joint contemporary circus performance by Sakari Männistö and Miika Nuutinen. This production takes a stand on the society's different forms of personal shame. Three men and their individual stories of shame carry the production from the start to the end. The fear of failure and the sense of inferiority are hanging in the air naturally intertwining with the shame inherited, carrying one's own parents' mistakes made. Poetry, juggling and knife throwing add flavour to the stories in Häpeä-kabaree.
