WANT TO RUN AWAY TO THE CIRCUS

May 20th, 2013

 

Pop Up Circus: What Do I Want? 

29 May – I June at Seaworks – Williamstown Boatsheds

The Show: This is circus but not as you know it! A stripped back, Pop Up experience providing the chance to peak behind the curtain to see how a circus show is put together. In the Big Shed we don’t turn down the lights. Watch the cast bring in trapezes, cloud swings and all sorts of circus equipment - like a magician’s secrets revealed!

Our cast, who balance their roles as performing artists with a varied range of day jobs, have devised this unique circus experience. Using tumbling, flying, swinging, music and movement, the cast of What Do I Want? explore, through the abstract and surreal, the hopes, fears and fragmented realities we all experience in the privacy of our own heads…

The Venue: The Big Shed at Seaworks is an industrial hangar at the Williamstown docks. Inside this huge venue, the Women’s Circus will create a pop-up performance space, where the cast will fly, swing and dangle from a gantry crane that was originally designed for ship building! We’ll have blankets and hot chocolate, so come and get cosy with the Women’s Circus!

‘What Do I Want?’ is directed by Spenser Inwood, 10 year veteran of the famous Flying Fruit Fly Circus and current Women’s Circus Trainer/Director. Join us for this exciting pop-up circus show inside the Big Shed for one hour of stripped back, lyrical, surrealist circus!

Walking distance from Williamstown Station, grab a meal in lovely Nelson Place on the foreshore before heading to our pop-up show!
