Viola offers a new LGBTQ aerial theatre performance charting the psychological journey through gender identity, anxiety & isolation. Reimagining Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night through Viola’s eyes, this production weaves spoken text with aerial performance (Silks & Corde Lisse) and floor acrobatics with a live improvised soundtrack (violin & cello) to explore the story beneath Shakespeare’s most famous comedy, challenging ideas of “the norm”.

We had a fantastic premiere at the Scottish Mental Health Arts and Film Festival 2019 and have completed in October 2019 the first half of our national tour, with performances in Glasgow (Platform Theatre), Edinburgh (Assembly Roxy) and Galashiels (Mac Arts). We will next be performing in in London on *Saturday 15th February 2020* in Jackson's Lane.

Alongside our performances, we provide workshops in physical theatre, improvisation and acrobatics to low-income schools.

We have had theatres and schools in Isle of Mull, Shetland Isles, Inverness, Dundee, Aberdeen and Liverpool ask us to bring "Viola" to their communities.

We are now seeking £5000 to help us support our school workshops and cover transportation, artist accommodation and fees for these schools and venues.

If you would like to get involved or find out more, contact our Director Charlotte McKechnie at cirqueviola@gmail.com and follow our social media (@CirqueViola) to get the latest information on where to see us live!
