X-acts New Cirkus performance for children and their families

X-acts New Cirkus performance for children and their families
Does a cookie tin play the saxophone? Can a
pencil dance? And what has belly dancing and
flying books got to do with each other?
Nothing is as it seems when performer/juggler
Samuel Gustavsson and musician Sture Ericson
invite the young audience into a poetic New
Circus performance, which sensuously and
wordlessly feeds the imagination.
The Magical Sound Circus is based on Kitt Johnson
X-acts New Circus performance Aber Dabei from 2007
By and with Samuel Gustavsson ogSture Ericson
Artistic consultant Kitt Johnson

THE PRESS WROTE
It seems almost hypnotic to
witness, and the kids clearly
feel the power. Samuel
Gustavsson is a physical
virtuoso out of the ordinary.
His body moves with complete
harmony – without the least
unevenness in his
centrifugation.
Anne Middelboe,
Børneteateravisen
Gustavsson ... is a juggler,
magician, dancer and clown in
a single figure.
Janus Kodal, Politiken
(about Aber Dabei)
Elegant is Gustavsson’s play
with paper and pen on the desk
and in the room.
