Ringside

This is circus up close and personal. Intimate, visceral and thought provoking, made for your eyes only.

You might be used to seeing circus as part of a roaring crowd at a distance so you can’t see the physical effort in every move – but this show is different. A 1-1 where you will be so close to the aerial performance you’ll hear the perfomer’s breath, see her muscles flex and strain, and see the bruises that reveal the pain of intense hours of practise.

The more you reflect on it, the more it delves deeper into the realms of female empowerment, vulnerability, intimacy and control
