Welcome to SOCIALICIRCUS, a Corona-proof outdoor theatre performance about the importance of physical contact! In this wondrous ‘Carnival-like’ venue, the audience is introduced to a group of abnormal circus performers. People all looking for touch, emotional closeness, a safe way of physical contact.
SOCIALCIRCUS is a touring outdoor theatre performance. On the playing surface there are 5 small play areas for 5 solo performances, all lasting 5 minutes. A bus as a stage for the scientist, a shed with veranda for the clown, a bar for the cancan dancer, a glass cage for the medium and a raised boxing ring for the strong man. Spectators travel in groups simultaneously along a route in which they get to see 3 of the 5 solo opera performances. The performance then concludes with a common scene from the centre of the playing field that can be seen by all spectators.
