Jacob's Pillow Dance

June 11, 2012-(Becket, MA) Jacob's Pillow will open its 80th Anniversary Festival―a "veritable dance explosion" (Claudia La Rocco, The New York Times) ―with Australian circus arts ensemble Circa in the Doris Duke Theatre June 20-24.The company will perform the eponymous evening-length work CIRCA, an artistic compilation of physical theatre, contemporary choreography, aerial dance, and astounding feats of strength and flexibility. Lyn Gardner of The Guardian calls CIRCA "something extraordinary. It's breathtaking, beautiful and sexy...But Circa is also astonishingly moving, its story of human co-operation and frailty emerging through an acro-ballet."
