Circus I Love You
Welcome to a heartwarming and effortlessly flowing variety show with roller skaters, rope walkers, and breath-taking balancing acts. All accompanied by live music. A poetic declaration of love for the art of the circus and for life itself. The acrobats do all that circus artists usually do. And then some.
They come from five countries and they got together to make their common dream come true. Once they’d bought a circus tent, a production grew out of their passion for circus art. They walk the rope, perform breakneck acrobatics and play a wide assortment of musical instruments. They jumble rock, jazz and klezmer music. Everything is recognizable – and the mix is unique.
The production is infectiously happy, easy-going, a celebration of peace and love. It strips away illusion and carries us right into an intoxicating reality that we help create. Experience circus at its best. Beautiful, surprising and magical!
