Spaghetti Circus show a Monumental success!
Spaghetti Circus’ show Monumental has wrapped up a hugely successful sell-out season with close to 2000 people enjoying 10 action-packed performances across two weeks. An innovative presenting partnership with Brunswick Picture House attracted new audiences from interstate and across the region, allowing Spaghetti Circus to showcase the skill of its incredibly talented emerging performers.
Monumental featured Spaghetti Circus’ Performance Troupe of 15 performers aged 12 – 21 years. Working in an ensemble, the troupe developed spectacular new skills, which evolved throughout the season. Directed by Spenser Inwood from award-winning company A Good Catch Circus, Monumental also featured local musicians Sue Simpson and Melia Naughton, who composed and then performed the original score live on stage.
Monumental celebrated unsung heroines and heroes in our society with the troupe building circus monuments in their honour.
“If you could bottle the spirit of what happened at Brunswick Picture House over the last three weeks, it would be an elixir for life! We have witnessed pure joy on and off stage, and those young performers have had an experience that will stay with them for life.” said Brett Haylock, Brunswick Picture House owner and Monumental Co-Producer.
