HELD

A facilitated cuddle container built around one rope suspension, witnessed from inside the nest. Clothing-optional, nonsexual. Almost every rope performance is watched sitting upright, at a remove, as spectacle. This one is watched lying down, from inside a cuddle nest, with the rig in the middle of the room. That single change turns a performance into a shared somatic experience: you are being held while you watch someone else be held. The person in the rope is doing, in an extreme and beautiful form, exactly what everyone on the floor is doing in a small one — giving their weight to someone who has them.
