Alternative Circus Act
A powerhouse company changing the way we perceive circus shows, this act offers up a heady plate of jazz, theatre, acrobatics and eccentricity for audiences’ delectations. Bringing their own brand of quirkiness and dark humour to each original cabaret show, the performers behind this Alternative Circus Act are stubbornly difficult to confine to a single genre. Titillating the senses with their rich combination of inspirational circus entertainment, theatricality and throbbing jazz music, we challenge you not to fall in love with one of this company’s after dinner shows.
Run by a small performing arts company, this incredible cabaret act focuses on contemporary circus entertainment, drawing inspiration from dance, musical theatre and artistic traditions. Working closely as a unit, each unique cabaret show engages artistically with every performer and technician in the company.
Demonstrating a diverse range of skills in every captivating circus show, performances range from an act set in a rowdy whiskey joint in a parallel universe to a contemplative show inspired by Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s inwardly looking ‘Notes from the Underground’. Always well thought through, beautifully written and emphatically performed, this interactive circus entertainment takes audiences on a brief journey into strange lands where the primary language is music. Incorporating quirky props, beautiful set designs and custom designed costumes, each show creates a realistic world for audiences to be swept into.
Regulars on the festival scene- often receiving 5 star reviews for their shows at the likes of the Edinburgh Fringe and Sydney Festival, this intoxicating circus company is also the perfect choice if you are looking for a unique after dinner show for a corporate event or gala. Described by Scenester as "A multi-disciplined, genre defying cacophony”, get ready to pack up your bags and leave for the surreal world of this Alternative Circus Act!
