Stratford Circus is delighted to announce it is the proud recipient of an award from City Circ for an artist in residence project April – December 2010. City Circ is a new network of 20 Venues in and around Greater London, offering networking and partnership opportunities to developing new contemporary circus work.

Stratford Circus will be working with the UK’s leading German wheel duo Acrojou Circus Theatre to seed and develop new circus work for and with children and families entitled ‘Waste Time’.  The theme of the work is environmental, with an emphasis on encouraging a creative approach to reusing and recycling.  A key part of the project including time spent with Keir Hardie Primary School, working with the children, young people and families in the school and theatre.

‘One of the main benefits this project would bring Acrojou is that it would enable us to begin to develop a new approach to creating work, responding to a different audience. As physical performers gaining new knowledge about audiences and approaches to theatre-making is invaluable as it feeds our creativity and allows us to develop our art form and methodology to a higher level.’ Barney White, Acrojou
