BAMBOO

A high-impact, high-skill circus show using UK grown bamboo and human bodies

BAMBOO

The artists break through the crowds to an empty stage, brandishing a variety of beautiful bamboo sticks, on which they climb, vault and spin. They discover bundles that unfold and erect into towering sculptures, 6 metres high. The towers morph and evolve into an animated circus installation, with grace and poignancy, impressive feats of strength and agility, humour and humanity, and a sense of never having seen anything like this before. 

BAMBOO is a show like no other; it changes the lived experience of a place for all who witness it. High Streets and civic spaces are forever changed by the memory of the bamboo circus forest that passed through like a whirlwind. 

BAMBOO is available for touring in 2026 and beyond. For more information, please email our Creative Producer, Dann.
