[ATTENDED: March 16, 2013] C!rca: Wunderkammer
As part of our theater-going experience, I bought Sarah and I tickets to C!rca’s Wonderkammer show. I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect (but we’ve has such good luck with shows that we didn’t know anything about that I wasn’t worried). The blurb about C!rca reads:
In this exquisite cabaret of the senses, a diva melts into a rope, balloons and bubble wrap discover their artistic souls while bodies twist and fly. Seven performers of unbelievable ability bend the very fabric of reality. Sexy, funny and explosive, Circa presents a breathless cocktail of new circus, cabaret and vaudeville. Control and abandon, skill and humour, lyricism and anarchy all meld into a sinuous fugue of profound beauty.
So, you sort of think you know what you’re going to get, but in many ways that descriptions is kind of meaningless. It may help to say that C!rca are from Australia (meaning it’s unconventional). But really nothing prepared me for what we saw. (more…)
