Pinch Pleat is created for three aerialists and 3 musicians, and it will premiere in Flow Circus series during Oulu August Festival.
The performance combines aerial techniques with contemporary music, and it's the third collaboration between Ilona Jäntti and Luke Styles, since they first started working together in 2009 in London. In Pinch Pleat they collaborate with Norwegian circus company KompaniTO and Uusinta Ensemble from Helsinki.
