Dress up in your bowtie and top hat, get comfy on the couch and grab the popcorn, because a Night at the Circus is coming to you, virtually! Zip Zap Circus presents the virtual screening of ‘The Caretaker’, a family- friendly production initially performed at the Zip Zap Dome in 2011. ‘The Caretaker’, is choreographed and directed by the legendary Adele Blank from the Free Flight Dance Company, and combines theatre, dance and circus. Set in a quaint apartment block, inhabited by a kaleidoscope of people, ‘The Caretaker’ tells their stories and the events that transpire in the courtyard, including a fire in the building! These colourful stories are conveyed through the medium of circus acts including swinging trapeze, double straps, acrobatics, tumbling, juggling and much more. Who knew that circus skills would be the ultimate survival skills required in the event of a fire? This is the first screening of their 3-show A Night At The Circus season. Whether you’re in lockdown with some company or solo, join in for a Night at the Circus. Expect hilarious antics of acrobatic wizardry interlaced with spellbinding aerial artistry performed by the extraordinarily talented Zip Zap children! Tickets available on Quicket.
