Duck Pond by Circa
The enchantment of Swan Lake, the thrill of the circus, with humour, panache and, of course, feathers.
The world’s most romantic ballet is re-imagined as a circus spectacular, full of Circa’s signature physicality and shot through with cheeky humour and a thoroughly contemporary energy.
Be swept away by this tale of swans and hapless princes sparkling with quirky touches like the sequinned flipper-wearing duck army and a burlesque black swan. There are sumptuous aerials, jaw-dropping acrobatics and of course feathers! Touching, funny and utterly entertaining, Duck Pond is a tale of identity and finding your true self.
★★★★ “The acrobatics are awe-inspiring” – THE IRISH TIMES
★★★★ “Graceful aerial solos. Jaw dropping lifts. Superhuman balances. Swan Lake as you’ve
never seen it before” – THE TIMES
★★★★ “Thoroughly entertaining. This circus mash-up of swan lake and the ugly duckling is a
seasonal treat” – TIME OUT
