SEASONS

Every artist has their season.

Seasons is a spectacular new circus performance that celebrates the journeys of 16 young artists from Flipside Circus, as they grow, connect and discover the joy of performing together.

Moving through a full seasonal cycle, from spring to summer, autumn and winter and back to spring again, Seasons is a flowing, evolving work full of stunning images that draws on traditional and contemporary circus. Pre-professional artists aged 10 to 18 push their limits across tumbling, acrobatics, aerials, chair stacking and hand balancing, in a show as ambitious as the young people performing it.

Each artist has their moment to shine, and together they become something bigger: an ensemble. In a world that can feel increasingly disconnected, Seasons is a joyful reminder of what we can achieve when we grow together.
