In Circus Maximus Micha´s Amateur Theater Group tries to find out what Circus is.
What kind of ingredients do you need to create a Circus performance? Is there Circus in the meeting of a group of quite unprepared performers, with very different backgrounds, not really knowing each other, and not having a clue about Circus?
Can the vulnerability in the act of balancing between them actually be Circus? You may not call it Circus. Micha´s Amateur Theater Group calls it Circus Maximus.
Micha´s Amateur Theater Group (for professionals) started July 2016. Since then professionals from the fields of arts in Brussels have been meeting each other in the time concept of amateurs – 1.5 hours a week, for two months. A strong but always changing net of people have interacted under one golden rule: engage with pleasure!
