A Circ Vermut performance

A circus show full of absurd humor, physical comedy, and creative skills

The circus ring, the backdrop, the popcorn… 

The traveling circus has arrived!

Eccentric ushers warm up the crowd, and before anyone realizes, the show has begun. Balancing on planks and pipes, a rubber duck obsession, velocipede stunts, and absurd broom tricks lead us to a grand finale—a wild and virtuoso bicycle race.
