What is it?

As part of CircusFest 2016, The Ricochet Project presents Smoke and Mirrors at Jacksons Lane in north London.  This will be the English premiere of Smoke and Mirrors  and it will run from Tuesday 19th to Saturday 23rd April.

Weaving delicate metaphor with jaw dropping spectacle, New Mexico-based Ricochet’s unique style of poetic acrobatics has taken the world by storm.  Using lyrical physicality and virtuosic circus technique, Ricochet draws from rigorous backgrounds in classical and contemporary dance, aerial acrobatics, somatic practices and improvisation to explore the internal landscapes of the human experience.

The winner of the Jacksons Lane Total Theatre Award for Circus 2015 at the Edinburgh Fringe.  Smoke and Mirrors is presented in partnership with Aurora Nova.

CircusFest 2016 runs until Sunday 24th April in London.

Please note that this performance contains nudity.
