“CIRCLE” (10 +)
Once upon a time, there lived people, who were called circus people. They traveled from place to place, building a tent to a field and waiting for audience to arrive. On one fine day a small girl sat in the audience, she was thrilled and shouted: “This is beautiful! Oh, if only it would last forever!” On that moment a curse fell upon the circus troop.
PERFORMANCE
They still travel from town to town, from village to village, where they perform numbers they know to well. But strange things have started happening. The hula-hoop is chasing after the artist, clubs run from the juggler, acrobats feed of their younger days and air-acrobats don’t make the difference between air and land.
The only thing that could save the circus from the curse is a young person, who’d shout: “This is pointless, i’ll show you how it’s done!”

THEATRE
When the organization was created we didn’t dare to use the word ’circus’ in our name. Now, ten years later, we know, that it is not possible to be ashamed of our name, we have to face the truth. We do circus.
In our work, there’s new and old circus, vulgar and grand culture, there’s gaming and fairness, small and big things, just as in every other performing art. Beloved high culture lovers, be aware and run to the deadest corners of the darkest streets, pull bags over your head and shiver, cause now, comes circus.
