Embrace absurdity and uniqueness at Esplanade’s Flipside, a 10-day programme filled with circus acts, puppetry, physical theatre, and comedy. Look for humour and meaning in the every day as these acts take ordinary objects like household items and give them unexpected meaning and form. International acts from France, Thailand, and Australia will be performing at the festival, such as Compagnie Bakélite’s (France) Stars In Our Eyes – A Double Bill, Circus D Lab’s (South Korea) One Two, One Two, and Mumusic Circus’ (Spain) Flou Papagayo.
Of course, local acts will also be available at Flipside, with award-winning clown and actor Shanice Stanislaus hosting a workshop for attendees to delve into the art of physical comedy and the history of clowns. Improvper Conduct will also present a free 30-minute sketch titled pRINTiNG ERR0R!!!, and be sure to look out for the spectacular acrobatic performance, Convergence, by the Bornfire Circus at the DBS Foundation Outdoor Theatre.
