$35Duck Pond, a vibrant, full-length contemporary dance-circus hybrid, is a cheeky re-imagining of the world’s most romantic ballet, Swan Lake, with mesmerizing acrobatics, burlesque, and slapstick comedy sequences.
The performance merges Tchaikovsky’s timeless score with contemporary percussive tracks and dance beats, balancing physical daring with delicate artistry for a result that is “boldly dramatic in its chaos and also charmingly magical in its whimsy” (Blue Curtains Brisbane).
Circa has been one of the world’s leading contemporary circus companies in Brisbane, Australia, since 2004. After performing in Vancouver, Circa will continue the Canadian leg of its tour to Toronto, Montreal, and Quebec City.
The BC premiere of Circa’s Duck Pond takes the stage at the Vancouver Playhouse Jan 22-25, 2025, presented by DanceHouse and The Cultch.
