CIRC/US is rooted in a poetic as well as entertaining vision of community arts based on storytelling. The circus theme and imagery are used to showcase people and their stories and develop a sense of community both on stage and among the participants and the audience. Our aim is to share the thrill and sense of empowerment that comes through creating a work of high artistic value with people.
Ron Bunzl, CIRC/US director and presenter, has been asked to create the final ICAF event on Sunday 3 April. His mission is to weave together the results of 4 ICAF residencies by Botkyrka Community Theatre, Dance United, Favela Forza and Imbali Visual Literacy together with other “acts” he will create in Rotterdam with community artists. The program will also feature a selection of additional acts from the successful CIRC/US Noord presented in June 2010 in Amsterdam. The Allstar Refjudzi Band (Archa Theatre, Prague) will also provide some exciting musical moments in the CIRC/US ICAF program.
Ron Bunzl himself will be the Ringmaster/MC of this spectacular multimedia celebration of creativity and expressive energy.
