Petit Mal
”Described as a contemporary circus, the performers fused break-dancing, hip-hop, Chinese pole, acrobatics and martial arts creating a visual feast for the eyes that left you open-mouthed in amazement.”
Ashley Bolton / Daily Echo

Petit Mal's building blocks are black humour and collisions. The traditional form, poetry and soft movement of contemporary circus are challenged through randomness, dream-like logic and the menace of violence. Petit Mal is a part of our disintegrating culture and world.

”This is circus completely outside the box.”
Donald Hutera / Times
