CIRCUS OZ - MODEL CITIZEN'S

What is it about theatre in Griffith that keeps audiences away?  Here we have a facility that is world class and consistently features acts from around the world that are world class, and yet more often than not they perform to a theatre that is not full.


Tonight is no exception, with none other than Circus Oz on stage presenting their new show 'Model Citizen's' and yes we have a performance that is not sold out!! Can you believe that?  One of the leading avante guarde circus troupes in the world and the locals cant even turn up in droves.

Circus Oz predates the Cirque du Soleil and was one of the very first to concentrate on telling its story through the physical and comedic ability of its performers.  And as they say in the Circus Oz history no hierarchy of stars either. 

Tickets available at the door tonight, you won't be disappointed, oh and I realise that their are two Circuses in town, but for me tits the one at the theatre that has my vote. 


Model Citizens 

Model Citizens seamlessly blends the risk and beauty of breathtaking physical improbability with theatricality, choreography and Circus Oz’s distinct brand of Australian humour.

Stunningly lit and driven by a sensational live music soundtrack, Model Citizens unfolds within a cleverly designed model-kit world that challenges perspective, scale and concepts of normality.

In Model Citizens over-sized, everyday objects are used as unexpected circus equipment that create an intriguing new playground for the all-human ensemble.

Acrobats will back-flip off a giant vertical clothes peg, become tangled in an oversized cotton reel, balance on a house of oversized collapsing cards and fly high in an enormous pair of aerial undies!

Exposing circus skills in unconventional ways, Model Citizens presents stunning group acrobatics with a twist. Model Citizens is a visually and emotionally charged journey by the multi-talented Circus Oz ensemble, which explores what it really means to be a model citizen in today’s ‘model kit’ society.
