for all ages

ØBLíK is a contemporary circus solo combining slack wire and clowning

“‘Schräg’ in German means ‘oblique,’ but it also describes something unusual or comical. In ØBLíK, you’ll find the artist always just beside the expected spot, between two tall ‘A’s holding a rope to balance on. Everything shifts and unfolds. Schräg. Schräger. Am schrägsten. ØBLíK is an invitation to live obliquely, until a moment comes when we no longer have to look at each other askance.”*

Theresa Kuhn - Maroussia Diaz Verbèke - Le Troisième Cirque

Trained at Circomedia (Bristol) and then at the CNAC in Châlons-en-Champagne, Theresa Kuhn specializes in aerial silks after a background in clowning and physical theater. She created OBLiK (2025), a flexible rope solo for public spaces, which she circographed* with Maroussia Diaz Verbèke, in collaboration with Le Troisième Cirque, co-directed by Elodie Royer. Le Troisième Cirque, which coined the term “circography,”* is the company that has been presenting shows since 2015 inspired by the history of the circus and its avant-garde movements, such as Circus Remake (2024), in which Theresa Kuhn is one of the two performers.
