Tours & Projects

Motet

Captivating and gravity defying movement. Charming and magical images. Five performers manipulate objects that float, collapse, and mesmerize.  Sideshow Circus Magazine says Motet creates a “mysterious and living world that might swallow the performers.” In Motet, many parts become one.

Motet is a new collaboration between Finland’s creative CIRCO AEREO and Britain’s acclaimed GANDINI JUGGLING.  Under the direction of Maksim Komaro of Circo Aereo, Motet premiered in May 2011 at the New Circus Festival in Helsinki, Finland. The Helsingin Sanomat called Motet “enchanting.”

U.S. Premiere: Fall 2012.  Length: 80 minutes. No intermission.

Circo Aereo is a recipient of the prestigious Finnish Award given by the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture and is one of the most active Finnish cultural exports. The company has performed in the United States, the Middle East, and throughout Europe.

Gandini Juggling are pioneers of movement juggling. Based in England, the company has performed over 4,000 shows in 40 countries which have included multiple guest appearances with Cirque du Soleil.
