Each year Circa tour their shows across the world and premiere multiple new creations. They are a staple at prestigious festivals and venues in New York, London, Berlin and Montreal as well as throughout Queensland and across Australia.

We invite you to join them as they continue to “redraw the limits to which circus can aspire” (The Age).
