From January until March we will be part of the tour 2026 with great catch!
Featuring House of Circus, Fenja Barteldres<\/a> and Knot on hands<\/a> , this 75min show will mix circus, drag, theater, and a lot more surprises.

As House of Circus we will be performing an adapted and shortened version of Spotlight<\/a>, (25min) in which we will unravel our transformation into drag, the struggle for perfection and the clownesque confusion of setting up a stage.

You can see the full tour list on our AGENDA<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GREAT CATCH<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With House of Circus, Knot on Hands en Fenja Barteldres<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fresh take on circus, a genre that constantly pushes the boundaries of what it can be.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great Catch<\/em> showcases a new generation of makers in a vibrant circus program. The Circuscoalitie has selected three performances that push the boundaries of circus with courage, originality, and innovation. House of Circus presents an explosive mix of circus and drag, filled with glitter and humor. Knot on Hands plays with the (im)possibilities of partner acrobatics, creating a hypnotic movement language in Brace for Impact<\/em>. On a Cyr wheel without screws, Fenja Barteldres transforms the circular ring into a completely new apparatus. Great Catch<\/em> invites you to discover the many faces of circus. Catch it if you can!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
