Circus in the streets and the spaces around us
Nenúrio Circus is a Brazilian circus company researching street clowning and alternative spaces through circus techniques.
Our research
Clowning that meets the street
Our work starts from a simple question: how does circus change when it leaves the big top? We research street clowning and alternative spaces, adapting each show to open public environments, from squares and courtyards to libraries and cultural centres.
Every performance is shaped by the place it happens in, its people, its textures and its rhythm.
Where we perform
From cultural centres to public circuits
Our show Biruta, Bare and Raw has been presented through the São Paulo Municipal Culture Circuit and other programmes in cultural centres including Santo Amaro, Tendal da Lapa, Vila Itororó, Da Diversidade and Grajaú.
