Partnership 
If you represent a community or youth group
in South Yorkshire and would like to work with us on a future project
please get in touch with us at our Rotherham Office. We are often looking
for partners to work with on future community circus projects.
Partnership
working can benefit you by giving you the opportunity to benefit from
our work at subsidised rates and by specifically focussed work through
involvement at the project planning stage.
Future
Projects
Future Projects that we will be looking for partner organisations
to be involved with include:
-
Eastern
Steel This is an Educational Circus project that will look
into this history of the Asian Community in South Yorkshire and their
work in the steel industry.
-
Engagement
Through Circus This project aims to connect young people
with physical regeneration projects. It is well documented that without
the involvement and support of the local community then physical regeneration
projects are of limited success in addressing the root causes of social
depravation. However involvement in consultation can also be dull
especially for young people. By engaging young people through fun
exciting circus theatre activities we will inform young people about
developments in their area and through creating a performance with
them we will give them a voice to express their views.

TIE
(Theatre in Education) We are planning a series of Circus
Theatre in Education that will inform the audience about current issues
using circus skills as a metaphor to illustrate the issue based theatre
that we create and perform. These will usually be provided as a package
along with circus skills workshops. There will also be the option
of these shows acting as the start of a residency
- Example - My Green House - A stimulating environmental show raising
issues linking housing and the way people live to environmental issues
such as global warming. This will link to the national curriculum
in Geography and Science.
