PRIMAL

A Provocative Circus Inspired by the Animal Kingdom!

 

Get ready for Primal, the sensational new show from the creators of Rouge! Dive into a thrilling, sexy, and hilarious circus experience designed exclusively for adults. Primal showcases Australia’s top circus and cabaret talents in a wild ride of breathtaking acrobatics, dazzling cabaret, and electrifying dance.

 

Inspired by the raw energy of the animal kingdom and the complexities of human relationships, this nonstop spectacle explores identity, sexuality, and perception. With a mesmerizing mix of aerial artistry, fire performances, burlesque, and song, Primal is set to follow in the footsteps of the award-winning Rouge, delivering jaw-dropping acts with a cheeky twist. This is the most fun you'll have being absolutely blown away this year!

Primal is a new work in development. It will preview in December 2024, and premiering in early 2025. Audience responses and photos below are from our previous developments, with thanks to CircArts Geelong, Nexus, and Flying Fruit Fly Circus!
