A trip to the circus inevitably involves an ample number of OMG moments, when bodies fly through the air, clamber on top of one another, contort into infeasible shapes and generally defy belief.
A trip to see the Flying Fruit Fly Circus delivers exactly the same experience, but with the added jaw-drop that these are youth performers – aged 8-18 – at the very highest levels of their craft.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Australia’s national youth circus, this major new work brings together the full ranks of Flying Fruit Fly Circus for the first time, in the troupe's most ambitious production to date. Taking to the York Theatre stage at the Seymour Centre from January 14 to 19, expect feats of acrobatic, aerial and physical dynamism delivered by a mighty mob of the country’s top young circus talent.
