Cirkus Cirkör: Bloom

Let yourself Bloom

In this new Cirkus Cirkör performance you’re invited to a world of flowers, classical music and jaw dropping circus. An international cast of five multi talented artists sets out to change the world through joy, risk assessment and facing fears. We learn to live in fear and we can create stress from everything going on in our basic everyday lives.

We feel the pressure to not stand out, and trying is seen as the first step towards failure. We own more things than ever before, we look perfect in our pictures, but does that really make us happy? In Bloom, the artists face fear and stress and instead of turning it into terrible political decisions, they turn it into concrete circus actions and creativity. Through dedication, collaboration and joy they turn fear into poetry of risk.

“Our aim is to impress people with (super)human skills, to make them laugh, let them feel stressed and then release their tension.” (Ben Collis)

As the artists fly through the air on teeterboard, swing in trapezes and ropes, lift each other, do pair acrobatics and mouth hang, they embody the soul of circus: That you don’t have to give in to normalcy, different is good, you should be as unique as you feel.
