We’re looking for artists to take part in our evening cabaret. We have six spots available for talented circus performers to fill. This cabaret is part of the Arts Council funded programme: In the Open | Faoin Spéir, which will see a variety of outdoor arts events taking place in public spaces around Ireland. We’ll also celebrate World Circus day!
The Evening Cabaret
In the evening we will host two cabarets. One at 6pm and another at 8pm. The evening cabarets will take place on an outdoor stage, and we are using a tripod aerial rig. We have 6 spots to fill with 5 – 7 minute acts.
We want to know if:
- You have an act or have an idea for an act
- It could be Aerial, Hula Hoop, Juggling, Acrobatics, a clown type act, musical number
- We’re looking for upbeat acts that celebrate circus
We have budgeted a fee of between €150 and €175 per performer. We will have a dress rehearsal on Sunday April 10th between 2pm and 6pm.
Please contact cormac@circusfactorycork.com by Feb 22nd, if interested.
