Cirque de la tristesse
A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON SADNESS,
A LITTLE BIT OF LONELINESS
& AN ODE TO CURIOSITY
Cirque de la Tristesse explores the beauty hidden within
sadness, loneliness, and melancholy. Through a mix of traditional circus elements and emotional vulnerability, it asks how tragedy and isolation can be expressed through contemporary circus. The performance uses physicality and objects to embody emotions like fear and fragility, inviting the audience to see the poetry in the darkest moments of life. Instead of seeking entertainment, viewers are invited to experience the necessity and beauty of melancholy.
