Giffords Circus – on The Common, Marlborough
27 August @ 11:00 am – 9:00 pm
GIFFORDS CIRCUS IS BACK IN 2022 WITH A BRAND-NEW SHOW ¡CARPA!
The word ¡Carpa! originates from the Spanish word ‘tent’ and refers to a removable canvas roofed structure used for a travelling theatre, much like a circus. ¡Carpa! was a type of theatre that flourished in the 1920s and 1930s in Mexico and the southwestern states in America.
“Our 2022 show will evoke the sights and sounds of rural Mexico. I have directed in that splendid country several times it is a place that I greatly admire. Mexico’s incredible art, music, history, and people will be our inspiration. We are bringing Mexican performers over to join the troupe and with them we will create a show full of skill, humour, turmoil and excitement.” – Cal McCrystal, Director
Four shows today – 11am, 2.30pm, 7:30pm, 9:00pm (Circus Sauce)
