CASUS CIRCUS

CASUS CIRCUS performances are rich in human connection, integrity, cultural diversity and precise, intelligent choreography. Acrobats fill the stage with momentum and stillness, with strength and fragility, and overwhelm audiences with breathless emotion that often leads to a silent theatre throughout the performance– followed by a standing ovation at the end.

Renowned for their aesthetic of delicately human circus, CASUS CIRCUS’ premier work KNEE DEEP is an international sensation. Performed in over 22 countries, KNEE DEEP won international accolades including Best Circus & Physical Theatre 2016 Adelaide Fringe and Best Circus & Physical Theatre Avignon 2015.

On the success of KNEE DEEP, CASUS have grown to an established touring company of sixteen acrobats, making up three casts which tour internationally with the shows KNEE DEEP, CHASING SMOKE, YOU & I, TOLU and DRIFTWOOD.

Originating in Brisbane, Australia, the three co-founders remain company members and close friends. Their home-town values of humanity, friendship and connection flow throughout the company and their performances. It is this that forms the backbone of CASUS’ signature style.

Off stage, CASUS actively work to maintain their human connections through community engagement, education, and collaboration alongside their performance works.
