CROSSING VOICES – THE CHALLENGES OF PRODUCING AND TOURING UNDER A BIG TOP

For the second episode of Crossing Voices, host Maaike Muis brings together Julien Auger from the international circus company Circus I Love You and Luke Hallgarten, artistic director of the UK company Revel Puck Circus to explore the complex blend of tradition and innovation that defines contemporary circus, as well as the logistical and financial hurdles of working in temporary spaces. With practical advice and honest insights, this episode sheds light on the world of self-produced contemporary circus performances and the realities of bringing art to life under the big top.

Crossing Voices – Linking European and international perspectives in contemporary circus and outdoor arts is designed to highlight the voices of key players in the contemporary circus and outdoor arts sectors. This podcast is part of the read-thread followed by Circostrada's new project, CS VOICES. The podcast aims to foster a continuous dialogue on current issues, bringing together diverse perspectives to inspire meaningful change in both the arts and policymaking, thereby contributing to a more inclusive and sustainable cultural landscape.
