A LONG WEEKEND OF THRILLING, GRACEFUL, GRAVITY-DEFYING PERFORMANCE. THIS IS CIRCUS, BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT.
Discover the unique places and spaces of the Albany as circus artists take over our building to present brand new work. Delight in a smorgasbord of cabaret and circus with the return of Circus Bites. Indulge in dysfunctional devilment with Tumble Circus (more below). Enjoy an afternoon of tumbling, flying, swinging and spinning with your family. There’s something for everyone.
In rhythmic, sizzling poetry, Inua Ellams conjures the violence of a city not unlike London and imagines a more beautiful world beyond it. With a live soundtrack by Zashiki Warashi. Performed on the rooftop of Deptford Lounge and followed by post show music.
