Circus Life

Your local playground has never been this feral

  • In the summer of 2023, we rode around in a circus wagon with Parkteatern and treated Stockholm's parks with a full-on circus party. The performers flew through the air, juggled and performed stunts like there was no tomorrow. As the Grand Finale, we rolled into Vitabergsparken and unleashed the tame, wild and living cannonball directly on the main stage.

    Circus life has been performed in one guise or another since the turn of the millennium when the circus wagon rolled into Swedish schoolyards and took over the classrooms with week-long madness.
