BUST! 2018 Circus Performance

Performance by the incredibly talented and dedicated students of the 2018 BUST! circus intensive.

BUST! circus performance smashes social barriers while strengthening community! Incredibly dedicated students support each other to new heights of physical and emotional expression through circus arts and transformative storytelling. Come explore notions of strength and watch performers re-envision the world around us and the ways we make art. BUST! students perform partner acrobalance, trapeze, aerial fabric, stilt-walking, clowning, and physical theater! Inspiring us all to overcome our fears, take on individual and societal challenges, and to let our vulnerable, strong, expressive selves shine.

Since 2002, every year we have amazing folks explore circus disciplines in a 6-week intensive workshop. Women, trans*, and gender nonconforming folks of ages 16+ join together to challenge themselves and support each other. Many participants may come to this program with little or no experience in circus or performance, and they work together to create powerful, awe-inspiring, and often hilarious acts that express their own unique, embodied voices.

This years show is directed by Freyr A. Marie with support of the BUST! Leadership Team: Fantina Becker, Oriana Lee, Carey Cramer, Colleen McKeown, and Freyr A. Marie.
