Cul de Sac & Meeting Point @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 21 @ 8:00 pm – 9:15 pm

In another exclusive circus double-bill, Efecto Chopped and Out of Order present two tender and beautiful pieces.

In an elegant and graceful fusion of two artforms, Cul de Sac features international juggler Jose Triguero and Chinese pole artist Gemma Palomar.

Meeting Point combines contemporary dance and aerial straps and hand to hand in order to create original, powerful and innovating physical performances. It tells the story of a journey; the paths we choose as individuals and the moments our paths cross with others.

SPOOKS! A Halloween Cabaret @ Jacksons Lane
Oct 31 @ 8:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Jacksons Lane summons you to a ghoulish feast of blood-curdling burlesque, macabre music, spectral circus and eerie illusion with some horrifically talented artists in this frighteningly fantastic night.

Overseen by the dark lord of comedy magic Christian Lee, expect vampires on ropes, tantalising terrors of tease, ghouls on your lap and gothic glamour all around, including the queen of erotic neo-burlesque, the sensational MisSa Blue.

The ticket includes a chiller cocktail on arrival, with a late bar and special medicinal concoctions to get your fangs into. Book early!

We encourage attendees to dress to distress.

Chivaree Circus: Becoming Shades @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 19 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Myths remixed: the classic story of Persephone is retold with live music, aerial acrobatics, fire, dance and mime. A high impact show full of hope and sorrow, it’s Greek mythology but not as you know it as this tale of love, choice and empowerment gets a contemporary circus twist. Chivaree Circus will take you on a journey and leave you ready to embrace an eternity in Hades.
