What's On

Duck Pond
 

Fresh from its breathtaking international tour to North America, the UK, and Europe, Circa, one of the world’s leading contemporary circus companies, joins forces with Merrigong Theatre Company to soar onto the Wollongong stage with Duck Pond a mind-blowing reimagining of the world’s most romantic ballet, Swan Lake, at the Illawarra Performing Arts Centre from 22 to 25 October.

In an unforgettable collision of ballet and circus, audiences will be swept away by this tale of swans and hapless princes, sparkling with quirky touches like the sequined flipper-wearing duck army and a burlesque black swan. There are sumptuous aerials, jaw-dropping acrobatics, and of course feathers!

Touching, funny and utterly entertaining, Duck Pond pushes the limits of the art-form with jaw-dropping acrobatics that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

    There’s a palpable playfulness to these performances, disciplined, drilled and delightful. There’s fire, bite and fun and lots of kissing.
