Snuff Puppets & acrobat - Circus Olé
From Australia
A thoroughly modern traditional circus
Roll Up! Roll Up! To Circus Olé, where physical virtuosity meets puppet anarchy!
The fame of two circus families - the Farellis and the Da Silvas - has faded. When they join forces to try and regain their former glory, skilful acrobatics collide dangerously with giant puppet animals. See the fabulous flying Farelli Family perform defiant high wire feats and jaw dropping acrobatics! Marvel at the Big Elephant and other assorted ferocious wild animals! Giant Chinese mathematical dogs! A parade of trained cows! A flock of squabbling seagulls! All this and more is waiting for you at
Circus Olé
!
A collaboration between two of Australia’s foremost performance companies, acrobat and Snuff Puppets,
Circus Olé
is a joyous celebration of traditional circus values. When the Snuff Puppets’ unique brand of vulgar, irreverent, gratuitously violent and comic sensibility is teamed up with the fearless, flying derring-do of acrobat, anything can happen! Suitable for all ages.
