Lucky Pigeons by Brainfools
Open Air Circus for all the Family to enjoy this summer with Artsreach!
A young businessman struggles with the demands of city life and, after losing his job, takes his frustrations out on a group of pigeons. Karma soon returns however, and the man finds himself turned into a pigeon, where he quickly learns about the playful world of this misunderstood animal.
With a mix of absurd and extravagant theatre, impressive acrobatics, empathetic and funny stories and a pinch of satirical spice and puppetry, a cast of seven Lucky Pigeons will perform daring aerials and acrobatic feats in this soulful story.
Brain Fools is led by two graduates of National Centre for Circus Arts.
Suitable for ages 6+
Running Time: 60mins no interval
* Please note that this is an outdoor performance – dress for all weather and bring your own chair/blanket to sit on. Assistance dogs only.
