Step into the extraordinary world of 'Apricity' by Casus Creations, an awe-inspiring contemporary circus show that illuminates the power of human connection in times of darkness. Inspired by the unwavering strength found in collective resilience, Apricity embodies the feeling of warmth on a cold winter's day through its stunning visuals, evocative music, and captivating performances.

Renowned for their theatrical and artistic vision, Casus Creations weaves together exquisite imagery, and world-class circus artistry for this brand new production.

A symphony of aerial apparatuses, ground-breaking acrobatics, and graceful movement intertwine with touches of humour, Apricity creates a spectacle that transcends the boundaries of circus.

Apricity is a testament to the transformative power of human connection, reminding us that together, we can create a world brimming with warmth and possibility.

Performed by Jesse Scott, Lachlan McAulay, Mayu Muto, Amy Stuart, and Harlow Carey

This project received Cash to Create through the Fringe Fund, with thanks to the Pulse Giving Circle.

About Casus Creations

Casus Creations is the brainchild of Jesse Scott, Lachlan McAulay and Natano Fa’anana. Our Creations are a reflection of who we are, directors of performance art, and our eclectic voices and visions are informed by the creative stories that surround us. We proudly sit amongst the world renowned circus community of which Meanjin (Brisbane) is known for.

Formerly tethered to the genre of contemporary circus, Casus Creations now lends itself to multiple disciplines ensuring more voices, other forms of storytelling, new experiences and greater spectacles. Casus Creations aspires to push the boundaries of what is humanly possible and extends our family of acrobats to other cultures, dancers, poets, puppeteers, musicians and theatre makers.

Maintaining its commitment to being a frontrunner on the international stages, Casus has performed to over half a million audiences touring 25 countries, achieving 66 awards and our casts are as intimate as 2 and as monumental as 87.

Our genre is no genre.

We are diverse by nature not by obligation.

Our performances are a platform to those of us who creatively dare to challenge the norm and showcase the intriguing, the amazing, the often unseen and unheard.
