ABC - A Painters Alphabet | (3+)
Kompani Giraff (Sweden) | FRATZ International
In “ABC,” the youngest audience is welcomed into an amazing alphabet studio, where two circus artists have been given the daunting task of getting through the 29 letters of the alphabet in just 35 minutes. It will be the start of an inventive and acrobatic circus journey through a rebellious alphabet. Wild capitals tumble upward as princes and swans step out of their frames to help.
“ABC” is a dizzying journey through the alphabet where the letters finally decide to dance a ballet high up in the clouds. “ABC – The Painters Alphabet” is a real treat for very young audiences as well as for slightly older children and adults, whether or not they are familiar with the Latin alphabet. This fun and imaginative circus and magic show surprises, makes you laugh, and, effortlessly along the way, sparks curiosity about the world of letters.
Kompani Giraff creates visual and unique circus performances with a foundation of poetic narrative and a passion for magic in everyday life situations. With this foundation they seek to explore new ground in contemporary circus and create truly interdisciplinary works of art.
Kompani Giraff's shows are based on young people's perspectives and the trust in children's ability to absorb complex subject issues. They explore the seriousness of play with an approach that is both respectful and curious. Their belief is that circus as an art form has a great potential to reach new audience groups by breaking linguistic and cultural barriers.
The company has roots going back to the early millennia with the legendary variety show Salong Giraff in Stockholm. As it progressed, one of the creatives behind the show, circus performer Viktoria Dalborg, decided to carry on the legacy and formed Kompani Giraff. She was joined by visionary magician Axel Adlercreutz and high fashion designer Sus Soddu. The three artistic directors, together with their hand-picked ensemble, create shows with the unique flavour of visual elegance, fluid magic and intelligent choreography.
Kompani Giraff stages about 150 performances per year. Internationally, the company has performed in China, America, France, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Latvia, Lithuania and Malta.
