"Gay" circus premieres in Barcelona
by Tony Grew
The Gay Circus will premiere in Barcelona on July 25th.
Circus performance is the latest art form to be
given a gay treatment with the creation of a
"new notion of circus based on male and female
acrobatics and oriented to a gay and lesbian
friendly audience."
Promoters describe the event, which has taken
two years to prepare, as "a show for people
without prejudices."
The Gay Circus will premiere in Barcelona on
July 25th, during the EuroGames.
"For the first time in the world, a circus created
for lovers of high-quality shows and of a culture
for the emotional and sexual diversity, a contribution to the normalisation of homosexuality," said promoter
Irene Peralta.
"Currently, we can find references to Gay Games, ballet performances, theatre, literature and cinema with a
homosexual oriented thematic.
"However, there’s no previous circus conceived from a gay angle and which aims at a wider audience in favor
of a greater visibility of homosexuality.
"Gay Circus will transform the traditional
understanding of the circus."
The circus will perform nine two-hour shows in a big
top that can hold 1,300 spectators.
The promoters claimed that "expressiveness,
sensuality and poetry will fuse … achieving an up-
to-date, modern and attractive aesthetic.
"Gay Circus flows like a dialogue between angels
and devils, the eternal dispute between good and
evil set now on a ring, with numerous references to
literature, painting, dance, sculpture, photography,
and cinema."
