Cirkus Cirkör Inside Out Nov 12–15
Posted September 13, 2009
Note: This Swedish show features brilliant American juggler (and many time Juggle This-feature act) Jay Gilligan; his insanely talented wife, Finish aerialist Mirja Jauhiai (that's her in the picture below); Circus Smirkus graduate Molly Saudek; and a stellar cast. Highly recommended. Details posted as received.
Part of the Brooklyn Academy of Music's 2009 Next Wave Festival
"A magical breathtaking performance… a powerful inter-disciplinary work of art."
–Skånska Dagbladet (Sweden)
The human body unfolds as a surreal rock and roll fantasy in Inside Out, Swedish troupe Cirkus Cirkör's phantasmagoric journey into the outer reaches of inner life. Accompanied onstage by dub-punk-new wave-electro-inspired band Irya's Playground and featuring an outlandish mix of highly skilled acrobatics, musical theater, and spectacle, Inside Out boggles the mind by way of the body. Actors and acrobats course through veins, explode through space like uncoiled strands of DNA, and lunge across synapses to become the body electric. Breathtaking, poetic, and humorous, never before has there been such a fantastic, gravity-defying voyage.
