The Circa company is one of the pioneers of Australian contemporary circus and is regarded as a world leader. For more than 15 years, the ensemble, led by Yaron Lifschitz, has had close ties with the D\u00fcsseldorf Festival, which has co-produced some of its most significant works. Circa last appeared here in 2025 with the sensational show \u201cWolf\u201d. The new creation \u201cEternity\u201d is quite different; it is conceived for a sacred space and delves deeply into the mystery and spirituality of iconic works by Arvo P\u00e4rt such as \u201cTabula Rasa\u201d and \u201cFratres\u201d. Circa creates haunting images for ultimate themes such as love, death and loss, but also promise, hope and profound wonder.<\/p>\n

We are offering a \u201cDown Under Special\u201d for this event: if you purchase one ticket each for the \u201cEternity\u201d and \u201cTen Thousand Hours\u201d events, you will receive a 10% discount on the total price of both tickets. Please note that this discount cannot be combined with other offers and is not available at the box office on the night. Click here for the discount.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
