CIRCA is a work created for seven performers from three of Circa’s in-repertoire works – The Space Between, by the light of stars that are no longer... and FURIOSO.

Over 75 intense minutes, the performers move from highly connected acrobatic and tumbling sequences, through fast-paced intricate scenes through to the hauntingly beautiful closing scenes of by the light of stars of stars that are no longer... Circa’s signature style – combining poetic physical beauty, extraordinary circus skills and an immersive use of sound, light and projection.

Circa causes beauty. It makes a kind of physical poetry from the languages of Circus. Where other companies tend to add elements (story, character) Circas work is a stripped back circus of the heart. It finds new emotional landscapes inside what is generally considered to be a spectacle. With work that has toured to 22 countries across five continents in the past three years, it works across cultures, audiences and venues. It’s the appeal of something that is skilful but hasn’t forgotten that to be human is, in the first instance, to feel.
With CIRCA, you can expect to see amazing circus skills in new and startling configurations, bold and innovative use of video and lights, a moving soundtrack and a muscular and precise movement sensibility. Circa’s work is very fresh – contemporary circus, acrobatic dance, multi-media. But at the end of it all, Circa’s work brings human emotion to Circus. Its shows are deeply felt and make audiences think and feel.
We are all looking for some way to make our work more powerful. In the actuality of circus, in acrobatics, there is immediacy, a danger and a skill that is extraordinary. Many people want to tap into this and use its power. Circa is lucky because it is a circus, so it starts with these elements. It is Circa’s basic script. Rather than add circus to choreography, they discover choreographic possibilities inside circus.
