🎪 Show Announcement: Clockwork Circus: Typo! 🎪⁠

A circus show for all ages.

Follow a writer as they delve into their process.

Typo is about the joys of being creative. Determined. Satisfaction of seeing a project and a dream through to the end.

The mind of the writer is projected to the stage, embodied by acrobats as they develop as characters within the writer's world. A unique and fun insight into the highs and lows of creating. Follow the writer on a journey of imagination, creativity, and dreams; experience the challenges of writing as they do - battling writer's block, procrastination, plot holes, and far too much coffee!

Emerge on the other side with a wholesome story and a sense of pride.

This show features everything from acrobatics, juggling, balance, object manipulation, trapeze, and even magic! It's suited to a family audience, with nuance and metaphor for older viewers, impressive skills and comedy for younger viewers, and a story that everyone can relate to.

If you've been at festivals in Canberra or surrounds these last few years, you mayhap espied these steampunk wunderkinds illuminating events and minds with their spectacular costumes and acrobatic roving.

Canberra Circus Festival is proud to premiere the first full-length theatrical work from this circus-theatre-physical theatre collective.

One show only!

🎪 Show Announcement: Circus Monoxide: Framed! 🎪⁠

As silence falls and shadows stretch across the polished floors of a locked gallery, the typically still masterpieces begin to stir. Mischievous, mysterious, and magnificently alive, these works of art have stories they’re dying to tell… and secrets they can no longer keep.

Monet strikes up an unlikely friendship with Warhol, Rococo flirts with Abstraction, and elegance gives way to chaos as the gallery transforms into a playground of movement and mayhem.

‘FRAMED’ is brought to life by the daring and dynamic performers of Circus Monoxide’s Troupe, an after-dark adventure that pulls back the velvet curtain to reveal the hidden lives of art itself. Paintings slip from their gilded frames, sculptures shake off their stillness, and the gallery becomes a stage where styles clash, dance, and come alive in breathtaking ways.

Join us at the May Wirth Big-Top for a whirlwind of acrobatics, theatrics, and pure creative mischief. Witness the masters unbound, as they fly, twirl, and tumble through the night. But be warned…blink, and you just might miss the magic.

One show only!

🎪 Show Announcement: Out of Bounds! 🎪⁠

Abandon all expectations of adulthood!

Out of Bounds is a nostalgia-laced thrill ride of physical ability meeting uninhibited imagination.

Come see what happens when a trio of athletic acrobats on the comeup use conventional playground equipment in unconventional ways.

Out of Bounds is for anyone and everyone who believe monkey bars are a legit form of transportation; that growing up is optional, and wearing a helmet is strongly encouraged.

One show only!
