The Garden of Earthly Delights

Directed by the esteemed contemporary circus artist Daniel Gulko, the 2025 Circadium production at FringeArts is both a romp and a manifesto.

This show plays with public and private, and the work of care for our intimate selves, using circus skills and tricks, to explore how we see each other, how we show ourselves and how we can resist the algorithms to be whole and unique.

This circus is teamwork – there is no strand that cannot be in the tapestry, and the contrasts enchant the weave. A circus performance that is elegant & punk, rigorous, wild, generous, intimate; by 16 young and hungry artists flying through the air, spinning over the earth, bending, rolling and reaching to speak about what it is to be alive today, with all the chaos, all the fierce love. With its prowess and overcoming of fear, circus sets an example for others – that with courage and engagement we can transform the world. Among the death-defying acts, the greatest risk is a wish for peace.
