Barabbas are delighted to announce that ‘Circus’ by Raymond Keane is returning as part of the Ulster Bank Dublin Theatre Festival 2008. Irish Times Spellbinding production… deceptively simple and thoroughly effective. Irish Independent This circus is enchanting…. a coup de theatre… it is daring, touching and beautiful. The Guardian This is spectacle with a heart; a timeless enactment of jealousy and love, that, in the hands of these performers, is allowed to soar. Barabbas Circus Devised and Directed by Raymond Keane A joyous physical production that will captivate audiences. Inspired by Fellini’s 1950s film La Strada, this magical and surreal show tells the tale of small-time circus act Gubu and Harle. They are one man down… but the show must go on. When the beautiful Angelina naively steps into the ring she is seduced into becoming part of their act and once more the show is back on the road. In a world of newfound wonder, love and disorder, they flip, they twist, they win, they lose. Now is your chance to enjoy this high-flying, heart-warming story of love and loss at the Circus.
