Cirkus Mania: Drömma Vilse – Dreaming Unknown

This year we are happy to be a part of CirkusMania!

WHAT IS CirkusMania? 
Do-it-yourself circus, stand-up circus, slow circus, and telepathic hybrid circus. From chaotic folk music and the longing for water to drawing robots and an embracing whale skeleton. In the 7th edition of CirkusMania, tradition and experimentation come together in a panorama of newly created works reflecting the Swedish circus scene – right here, right now. Running through the festival is a thread of belief in human creative power and our capacity for change. We warmly welcome you to the 2026 festival of circus as contemporary performing arts!

SdVVVorks (Part 1 of 5)
It is 2026, and we are enveloped by the scent of clouds adrift. A strange composition of fresh air, humidity, and pollution. The clouds drift in the distance, impossible to reach. They float by, and so do we. A dance studio. A song. A lone performer in a small sea of people. The music fades, and sunlight pierces only partially through the dense fog. A kitschy light. A guilty pleasure.

This is the first part of the upcoming international performing arts festival Dreaming Unknown by Olle Strandberg Colling and Sara de Vylder. The performance is accompanied by happenings, drinks, and music. Welcome drinks mark the beginning, and for those who wish to stay, more art events, music, and gifts follow. 

At CirkusMania the performance is a work in progress presentation, which means that it has not yet had its premiere.
