A spectacle that unfolds to the beat of a drum roll: a bicycle that defies convention, a glittering hit on roller skates, plates dancing on the finest rods—and in the middle of it all, a ceramic ball circles calmly in the center of the room. Like a virtuoso one-man band, Julian Vogel plays with traditional circus techniques such as Chinese plate spinning, torn-apart bicycles, and drum rolls—pure, simple, clear, yet daring and brilliant.
Vogel comes from Lucerne and lives in Basel. After studying psychology and art history at the University of Bern, he went to the Academy for Circus and Performance Art in Tilburg (NL). He is a prize winner of circusnext 2020/21 and is involved in numerous European art projects as a performer, dramaturge, and music producer. He co-founded Cie. Trottvoir in 2012 and KLUB GIRKO in 2017. In parallel to the performances of “Ceramic Circus,” the Roxy Birsfelden is showing a work by Cie. Trottvoir.
On September 26 and 27, you can also experience Vogel’s show as a double bill with “Fläzen” by Cie Trottvoir at Kaserne. “Fläzen” will be shown at 18:00 on the Kaserne Areal, followed by “Ceramic Circus” in the Reithalle.
