About the artist

When the evening's script is already in place but there's still no finale that keeps the room from reaching for their phones, an act that holds attention without words saves the day. Guests freeze mid-toast — and that's no longer a script, it's a reaction.

Darina Mishina and Mikhail Kondratyev are an acrobatic duo from Saint Petersburg. They have experience working in the ring and on the stages of shows and theaters; Darina performed in the Canadian Cirque du Soleil in the show Varekai in 2016–2017. Their repertoire includes floor acts: solo and duo cane balancing, the 'tower of balance' — a pyramid of chairs, and balancing on a diamond. There are also aerial acts: solo and duo aerial silks, straps, aerial hoop.

Their strength lies in precision and the silence they create around themselves. Not a trick for the sake of a trick: the chair structure grows before the audience's eyes, and each new tier makes the room stop breathing. The duo performs both on the floor and above it — under the ceiling of a banquet hall, the act looks no worse than on a big stage.
