Circus Monti is an incomparable experience for many circus spectators: modern and innovative, but still very charming. Itzel Viruega and Jérémie Robert have been secured for the concept and direction. Both are from Canada and closely associated with the École Nationale de Cirque de Montréal. Robert is no stranger to the circus, having performed as an artist with Circus Monti during the 2015 “Tourbillon” tour.
A clumsy fortune teller forms the central thread of the new Monti production. He wants to read the secrets of fate, but his own clumsiness thoroughly disrupts the prophecies. Amidst lighthearted confusion, gentle moments of wonder, and genuine grace, he discovers that it is precisely in failure that the magic lies, from which pure circus poetry can emerge.
There are evening performances at 20:00, as well as afternoon performances on certain days at 14:00 or 15:00; check out their official website and click on “Tournéeplan” to get a full listing of locations and show times.
Tickets are available from July 1; reduced prices for students and children.
