ORBITAL

An exhilarating fusion of dance, acrobatics, and martial arts that explores the forces that draw us together and pull us apart.

ORBITAL is both intimate and exhilarating, inviting you to feel the tension, the connection, and the release. It is a performance that unfolds at close range, drawing you into every moment of its raw and unpredictable journey.
As the action builds, so does the question: how do we stay connected when everything around us is chaos?

The performance unfolds like a physical dialogue: raw, playful, and unpredictable. Unseen forces pull the dancers into orbit before casting them adrift.

ORBITAL draws you into a world of momentum and resistance, where every movement teeters between control and release. Blending contemporary dance with Tang Soo Do and Capoeira, the performers shift from explosive, high-risk lifts to moments of quiet precision, testing balance, trust, and instinct in real time.

Choreographed by Laura Vanhulle and Oliver Russell, ORBITAL is the artistic duo’s debut indoor work together, fusing their unique disciplines in a powerful and intimate collaboration.
