Circus Around and About

Circus Around & About is taking extraordinary, family friendly circus to village communities across the south west this summer.

You can see two spectacular shows in a double bill at Chyan Big Top Dome:

Tilly Lee Kronick: Ripe

What do you expect when you see me? Ripe is a surreal exploration of our attitudes and assumptions towards female performers. Using technical static trapeze, contemporary dance and original text, Ripe aims to unpeel stereotypes that people wrap around women’s bodies.

Estimated running time: 20-30 mins

Everyone welcome, but as a guide we recommend the show for Teenagers and above

Company Zid: Routine

At the crossroads between parkour and circus Routine is a physically dynamic comedy about boredom with a twist of hope. A world where some spend their days leaning against walls and are suddenly compelled to self challenge, fly and break boundaries.

In order to step up, Routine invites us to use our body and mind as the one and only means of survival.

Estimated running time: 35 mins

Everyone welcome
