CIRKUS COPATKY

dance performance

Directed and written by: Milojka Širca
Choreography by: Marjana Garzarolli, Mojca Sovdat, Sabina Sovdat 
and dancers
Costume design by: Mileva Gavrilovič

The street performance Cirkus Copatky with over 40 dancers was created in coproduction with cultural society Jože Pahor and cultural centre Kosovelov dom Sežana. In the street-adapted version, the dancing cast consists of 12 members. 

It is a performance inside a performance. The dancers show what life in a circus is like, and the audience sees a real circus performance. Clowns, artists and circus animals are accompanied by musical rhythms. You can hear a French ballad with accordion as the main musical instrument, a march, klezmer and ethnic music with a hint of contemporary jazz. Dance elements are intertwined with acting and humour. The ensemble calls itself "the great and famous circus international", but things can get awkward from time to time.
