“Brave Space” by Chicago-based Aloft Circus Arts (at Iron City Circus Arts on the South Side)

The Pittsburgh Tatler: The intimate and mesmerizing Brave Space is a circus performance unlike any other you may have experienced.

The show starts with a “floof” of white parachute fabric in the air (I think “floof” is a technical term for this company, which already tells you something about their vibe and aesthetic). That “floof” is the signal to the audience to enter the space and surround the pool of fabric that has now settled on the floor.
