...and touring Spain until October 11th!
Make room for the tap dancing contortionist, the boy who was born by a horse and the girl wearing the wrong underwear, as they dance in the bar.
Watch a utopian love story crumble and fall apart at 7 meters height.
Listen to the echo of a Chinese pole and follow the neurotic counting his clubs.
Mind your head and keep up, as the rope acrobatics gain speed. Feel dizzy, as loneliness gets entangled in straps, laugh at the human weakness and hold your breath when truth finally hits your weakest spot.

FREAKS is the story of a traveling circus freak show. On a stormy night, the troupe takes shelter in a bizarre place and get caught between dream and reality. Soon an unlikely chain of events start to unfold, and nothing is as it seemed...
An 8 meters high trapeze truss, two chinese poles and an aerial ropeway constitute the scenery. Freaks combines the visual with the dramatic in a raw mix of magic moments and high-level circus tricks. Through playful artistry and thrilling circus performance, normality is challenged, when the grotesque and deformed become a mirror for our own wrongs and insecurities.
Who's to say what is normal and what isn't?
Who will end the game before it starts hurting?
Freaks is an outdoor performance. Suitable from age 8 and up.
The show can be held indoors, providing that the space requirements are fulfilled:
Height: 9 m, Width: 21 m, Depth: 13 m
Freaks is produced with financial support from The Danish Arts Council and the Danish Artists Union
Freaks is a collaboration between two Danish companies: Cikaros and TinCanCompany. All performers are professional artists, educated in Copenhagen, Stockholm, Rotterdam and Moscow and all have toured and performed at European festivals, cabarets and theaters for many years.
