Informed Chaos is an acrobatic theatrical production that explores the disconnection between humans in today’s digital-focused society through missed connections, self-isolation, and the unspoken. The piece weaves life lessons together to encourage audiences to step outside the digital space: to send the letter they’ve been meaning to write, to say the things they are afraid to say, and to choose connection with the people they love.

Circus is a passion, the stage is an outlet, and this art form is a powerful tool for navigating the chaos of the world. This message is conveyed through poetry in the form of letters, partner acrobatics, hand balancing, juggling, comedy, drama, and moments of reflection. The show is family-friendly with a 13+ recommendation.
