Events Description
Duck Pond features the enchantment of Swan Lake, the thrill of the circus, with humour, panache, and of course, feathers.
The world’s most romantic ballet is reimagined as an acrobatic spectacular, full of Circa’s signature physicality and shot through with cheeky humour, enchanting duets, and colourful surrealism.
You’ll meet a clumsy film crew, a sequinned flipper-wearing duck army, and a burlesque black swan. There’ll be sumptuous aerials, dynamic cyr wheel, and of course, feathers! Touching, funny, and completely entertaining, Duck Pond is a tale of identity and finding your true self.
Created by circus visionary Yaron Lifschitz (“the Caravaggio of contemporary circus”) with 10 members of the globally renowned Circa ensemble, this will be one of Circa’s most ambitious works yet with haute couture costumes courtesy of Libby McDonnell, music by Jethro Woodward (with hints of Tchaikovsky), and lighting from Alexander Berlage.
The thrilling physicality of Humans 2.0 and the playful comedy of Carnival of the Animals combine to make Duck Pond a must-see circus epic.
