Performer: Circa

The music plays second fiddle to Australian circus company Circa in Yaron Lifschitz’s production of Gluck's great opera. 

 Aaron Lifschitz directs contemporary circus artists, Circa in an exhilarating, ecstatic performance with the London Philharmonic to launch the Southbank Centre’s Multitudes festival. 

Yaron Lifschitz mesmerises from the opening tableaux’s row of candles in his Purcell staging for Opera Australia, featuring Circa, a Brisbane-based circus company. 

Man of the circus Yaron Lifschitz gives Orpheus and Euridice the Gesamtkunstwerk treatment in his involving production that arrives from Brisbane. 

Acrobats flying to the music of Vivaldi and his contemporaries makes for a surprising but highly entertaining combination in this energetic pastiche.

The circus mastery, physical brilliance and risk-taking choreography is what makes Circa a stand-out on the international stage – stretching movement capabilities with each electric encounter.
