Pas in september, dus je hebt nog even de tijd.
Maar wel helemaal in Carbondale in de staat Colorado. Belangrijk, want de States kennen meer varianten...
Deze plaats ligt op zo'n 170 mijl ten westen van Denver.

Daar vindt van 22 t/m 26 september het Convergent Circus plaats.
Geen gebruikelijk circus, maar een voorstelling waar je doorheen kunt lopen.
Bijna schreef ik doorloopvoorstelling, maar dat is in de toneelwereld toch echt iets anders...
Dat 'erdoorheenlopen' zien we zelfs hier al vaker gebeuren, zoals op dit moment in de Amsterdamse Beurs van Berlage.

Hoofdthema in de USA zijn de vier elementen Vuur Water Lucht en Aarde.
Ook dat komen we wel vaker tegen, zoals vorig jaar nog bij het Paardencircus Cavalluna in het Rotterdamse Ahoy.
Dat was een lust voor het oog.....

Bij de komende voorstelling in Amerika zoek je die elementen zelf op, goede wandelschoenen worden dan ook geadviseerd.

Hier leest u er meer over:

Imagine a portal that takes you into a world of performance and immersive art centered around the four elements; Fire, Water, Air, and Earth.

The Convergent Circus is a 4-day interactive art park and theatrical experience located in Carbondale, CO at the base of
Mount Sopris where the flowing waters of the Crystal River and Thompson Creek converge.
Audience members will walk through a half-mile of site specific outdoor environments.

The land will be transformed into a fantasy world that will use the four elements to portray thought provoking concepts from the past,
present and future. Each element will showcase various artists and performance vignettes and is sure to be an experience unlike anything else.

The production will launch on the autumn equinox, September 22, with a special opening show including additional ceremonies and rituals.
The show will run nightly through Saturday, Sep 25th, and will have an after-party, where performances, music,
and dancing will continue (9pm -12am).

Come along with us through this unique journey based on the elements, traditions, explorations of self, history, community and art.

SUGGESTED ATTIRE:

The audience will be active participants in this unique experience.
Please dress according to the elements of nature and wear comfortable and sturdy walking shoes.

Ticketing and more details coming soon!

The Circus Comes to Carbondale

An immersive installation is the final chapter of a summer celebrating 50 years of art.

Convergent Circus sends visitors through an installation depicting the four elements.

Think Meow Wolf meets Burning Man.

That’s how Carbondale Arts Executive Director Amy Kimberly describes what she has up her sleeve for the cherry-on-top of an extensive, summerlong 50th birthday party for the organization that put the Midvalley on the map for doing public art right.
Kimberly partnered with Aspen aerialist Ariana “Air” Gradow to launch the Convergent Circus, an immersive installation taking place September 22-25 in Carbondale.
True to its name, the experience is intended to create a meeting point for human connectivity after more than a year apart during the pandemic.
“You go through fire, water, air and earth,” says Kimberly of the installation, emphasizing the universality of interacting with the four elements.

Serendipitously, the planned kickoff is on the Fall Equinox, and she and Gradow hope the Convergent Circus harvests as much healing as it does entertainment.
“Fire will [reference] the issues that have been confronting us, like racism and global warming,” says Kimberly.
Once met head-on with some of the most heated (pun intended) topics plaguing society, there will be an immediate opportunity to rinse and face the world anew.
“Then you’ll go to water, which will be a lot of healing—a lot of shadow puppetry, gong baths.
The next thing will be air, and that will be aerial silks and big puppets and installations.
Then you’ll end at earth, which will be Native American: drumming, dancing, that kind of thing,” she says.
“We feel like a lot of people could use the intensity of this last year and find ways to reflect and feel in artistic ways.”

The Convergent Circus is, of course, a celebration at its core, so participants can also expect a journey that moves through time, beginning at the genesis of Carbondale Arts.
“When you come upon the scene, it will [feel like] 1972, which is when we started,” says Kimberly.
“Then you’ll leave, and you can go through a portal [to the elements].”

It so happens local artist Corey Summers—a Carbondale-based woodworker and lighting designer—is a portal specialist of sorts, she says.
It’s just one more in a long list of local collaborations that have made the Convergent Circus vision a reality.
While it’s too soon to tell if the installation will become an annual harvest offering, Kimberly is sure this one is “going to be a big thing.”

Voor die tijd kunt u er al terecht voor diverse andere evenementen, waaronder de 50e editie van de jaarlijkse Mountain Fair.
