Flying Circus
What do the bull-leaping rituals of Minoan Crete have in common with China’s Acrobat Circus? The Roman Empire’s Circus Maximus with Cirque du Soleil?
Children explore the fascinating world and history of the circus, through a participatory experience.
The educational programme “Flying Circus” balances play and learning.
This experiential workshop gives children the opportunity to explore their body’s capabilities, while immersing themselves in the magical universe of the circus.
The historical journey begins in Minoan Crete and Ancient China and travels through the courts of the Middle Ages. Finally, it culminates in modern forms of the circus, which they will experience, in a safe environment, guided by trained athletes, acrobats, and educators. Children become little acrobats themselves, taking part in every stage of the circus tradition and experiencing freedom, joy, and creativity, in the most fun and original way.
Ideal for preschool (4-6 y.o.) and primary school pupils (6-12 y.o.)
