School Holiday Fun .....WOLFGANG : A Family Show With A Circus Twist
Announcement posted by HOTA 06 Jul 2018
To his mother, he is Wolfgang. To the those who are watching, he is Mozart.
Presented by HOTA and Circa this internationally renowned Circa Contemporary Circus brings Wolfgang, a modern-day story of Mozart to the Gold Coast in an array of colour, magic, musical madness and, of course, wigs.
Straight from the score and onto the stage, the man known as Mozart appears amidst a puff of powder, wigged and ready to throw musical madness into a crescendo of dives, swoops and twirls. Featuring mischievous acrobats and a musician, Wolfgang reinvents the composer’s magical music with a circus twist.
Experience the latest family-friendly production from Circa, featuring a fusion of circus, movement and music. Watch as the notes are physically lifted off the page as performers bring the renowned compositions to life amidst a storm of powder, tumbles and crashes, all under the eccentric swirl of the conductor’s baton.
Yaron Lifschitz, Artistic Director, Circa, (Festival 2018 Creative Director) said the latest performance from the ensemble would ignite both child and child-like imaginations.
‘This is a performance for everyone. Touching on the marksmanship of Mozart’s mad but magical music, the ensemble will draw upon the frenzied, frantic and thrilling man himself turning the stage into a classical explosion of eclectic sounds and extraordinary visuals, all while wearing powder puff wigs!”
Created by the Circa Ensemble and artistic director Yaron Lifschitz, and featuring a klezmer-infused band with music rescored by the renowned Quincy Grant (Circa, Slingsby), Wolfgang follows the hugely successful Carnival of the Animals, Spanish Baroque, How Like and Angel and Opus as a post-classical circus art performance. Suitable for the whole family (kids aged 3+), this new production runs for 60 thrilling, totally wigged out, minutes.
HOTA, Home of the Arts | Thursday 12 July | 1.30pm
