Circa’s signature style combines physical beauty, formidable circus skills and an immersive and integral use of sound, light and projection. The result is a new kind of circus, at once poetic, sensual and immense. Rated: ‘G’ Duration: 75 minutes (approx).

Tuesday 15th May at 6:00pm, Wednesday 16th May at 9:30am and 12:30pm

The ordinary world of children is transformed through play, often so vividly that the ‘imagined’ becomes ‘real’ and possibilities become limitless. Me and My Shadow is a gentle story depicting the fanciful escapades of a girl, who finds a way to be friends with her shadow. “Me and My Shadow is absolutely beautiful and engaging on a theatrical level and genuinely one of the best children’s theatre works I’ve seen. Good grief it had everything! It was imaginative, magical, miraculous, moving and funny to boot and I just loved it.” Pat Rix – Artistic Director, Tutti Ensemble
