The performance depicts the silent place in the eye of a tornado – a metaphor for the search for inner clarity amidst the chaos of life. With a special combination of music, perfect balance and hypnotic object manipulation, this performance invites a shared meditative experience. This work in progress is part of Circunstruction.

TALK
This work in progress will be followed by a talk from 2.40pm to 3.10pm.

CIRCUNSTRUCTION
Circunstruction is the talent program of Circusstad Festival. It offers emerging circus makers the opportunity to develop their own show. Each year, the selected makers receive three weeks of rehearsal, workshops, artistic guidance and try-outs, as part of an intensive trajectory.

After the trajectory, Circunstruction offers support at an organizational level, so that the makers can move on to Circusstad Festival and the Dutch Circus Showcase, where they pitch their new performance to the many programmers from all over the world present at the festival.

The three selected projects for 2024/2025 are still in development and will premiere in a few months. During the festival, we will show these works as “work in progress”. A unique look behind the scenes at a circus performance in the making. The presentations will be followed by a discussion.
