Romantic, dark, daring, heart-warming, pleasantly melancholic, boundlessly charming, humorous, dramatic, sensitive, acrobatics with endless possibilities – without a moment of dullness. They’re coming back! They’re coming back!
The enthusiasm for the new circus that is so characteristic of the Budapest audiences began with the Swedish Cirkus Cirkör. We all stare at the stage in awe with our jaws hanging open regardless of age and sex, where there’s everything we could ever hope for: the grotesque, tragicomedy, surprises and things we’ve never seen before.
Wear it like a Crown, the final installment of the Cirkus Cirkör’s trilogy on the body (the first installment – 99% Unknown (2004) – was also featured at the Trafó) thinks like the chaotic system of the right hemisphere of the brain. On this occasion, the members of the ensemble have created a fabulous, Jean-Pierre Jeunetish (Delicatessen, The City of Lost Children, Amélie) world. The six odd characters all feel like they’re the loneliest people in the world and all they all come up unusual, lame ideas of establishing contact with the others, for example, with the use of ping pong balls, suction cups or a chainsaw.
This performance is our Christmas gift and is recommend for everyone over 10 years of age.
