Circus Thinks Launch Party in New York (USA)

Cirkus Syd is proud to release our newest publication, Circus Thinks: Conversations, a collection of critical essays, dialogues and provocations on contemporary circus, and we can't wait to get it into the hands of the NYC circus community. "Circus is not only fertile ground to explore the ways in which we create and share artistic work," the contributors write in the introduction to this collection, "but also the ways we relate to the world in general."

The launch is produced by our members Madeline Hoak and Nick Zelle in New York City. We are especially excited to partner with the Brooklyn Art Haus for this celebration, and to help introduce the brand new space as a welcome addition to the city's circus ecosystem. If you believe that circus has something important to offer, are curious about how it fits in cultural discourse, or just crave another way to plug into the local scene, this event is for you! There will be live performances, conversation and cocktails, and you will walk away with new reading material for your circus brains to nerd out on!

The new publication, drinks and food will be available for purchase. RSVP encouraged but not required.
