Australia's Premier youth-run Circus
Trick Circus has a strong focus on learning through performance, and hence has produced many self-devised shows for community events, corporate functions and arts festivals, one of their most successful being ‘When I Grow Up’. The show premiered in the Melbourne Fringe Festival 2006, where it won Best Family Event, Best Circus Performance, and the ACAPTA award, and has since been presented in various evolving forms. Trick has also been regular guests at events such as the Daylesford Swiss-Italian Festa, ‘Round The Bay In A Day’, National Youth Circus Day, and the Tasmanian Circus Festival. Whether they’re silly surgeons, brilliant buccaneers, chaotic school kids or a host of other crazy circus characters, the ‘Tricksters’ always guarantee an energetic, colourful and imaginative performance. Trick is able to provide stage or street performances, roving circus characters, and circus skills workshops for many different types of events. Please contact Chiara, our gig coordinator, for more information or a quote. |
