Performed on three scaffold tubes and combining Chinese Pole with aerial work, Tell Me follows a woman navigating her HIV diagnosis, her hopes, her dreams, her fears and ultimately her reality – living with the virus in 2026.
A highly physical performance, Tell Me draws on the lived experience of director Sadiq Ali as both a circus artist and HIV activist, creating intimate yet visually spectacular performances.
Tell Me seeks to challenge outdated perceptions and offers audiences a fresh perspective on HIV, rooted in courage, beauty and possibility.
