Extraordinary Bodies - Waldo's Circus of Magic and Terror
Bringing together the skill and talent of D/deaf, disabled, and non-disabled artists, Extraordinary Bodies - a vital collaboration between show-makers, Cirque Bijou, and Diverse City, a charity that champions diversity, inclusivity and equity in the performing arts.
Prepare to be dazzled by this uplifting new circus theatre musical by Hattie Naylor (Ivan and the Dogs, The Night Watch) and Jamie Beddard (Messiah, The Elephant Man) with an original score by Charles Hazlewood (Paraorchestra).
It’s 1930s Brandenburg and fascist whispers are growing to shouts. Many are leaving the country, but Waldo and his troupe of acrobats, clowns and conjurors are staying. Every night, they dedicate themselves to the entertainment of others.
Hidden beneath the glamour of Waldo’s big top is a story of forbidden love which balances on the tightwire. It’s a tale of courage, resistance, and the transformative power of love when the world is falling apart.
All performances are chilled, BSL interpreted, captioned and audio described.
