Synopsis

Circus has proven to be a favourite among our patrons and this performance will not disappoint.  still hungry is a contemporary all female circus collective from Berlin.  RAVEN, charmingly honest and highly entertaining, confronts the complex topic of motherhood.

Thanks to creative support from the renowned British director Bryony Kimmings, they stage a striking, authentic world filled with stunning acrobatics, beautiful imagery, and honest humour. Bird metaphors lie at the centre of RAVEN and illustrate the different challenges motherhood presents. One moment, the performers lovingly mother their children like hens and the rhythms of their daily movements turn into skillful satirical choreographies. In the next moment, the memories of their own strength as successful artists turn them into eagles, soaring strong and free through the air. With disarming directness and the unmistakable personality of the fearless circus moms, the performers bring a moving show to the stage, which challenges the status quo.
