Presentation

Dressed like they're on their way to the beach – shorts, Hawaiian shirts – six circus artists perform number after number in a funfair atmosphere that is virile and hectic, worthy of Superbowl Sunday in the USA. Jumping around from trampolines to catapults, braving the rotation speed of a spectacular Wheel of Death, the artists deliver an electric and whimsical show that never stops to take a breath. This show is an an outlet for the performers, it masterfully combines risk taking, school-kid gags, and absurd choreographies.

 

Concept and Performance: Mikko Karhu, Rauli Kosonen, Kalle Lehto, Odilon Pindat, Mikko Rinnevuori, Petri Tuominen

"The circus performers of the Race Horse Company are afraid of nothing. These Finnish stallions race through the risks and dangers, swing from a trampoline to a Wheel of Death and make a carousel spin in an intoxicating vertigo. Highly recommended." – Reflets

 

Founded in 2008 by Petri Petri Tuominen, Rauli Kosonen and Kalle Lehto, the company conceived a circus without compromise that renews the shapes of the contemporary circus. Their first creation, Rusty Road Circus (2009), was a great success with audiences in Finland and Sweden. Petit Mal (2010) gave them the opportunity to roam across Europe and North America, Russia and Australia, conferring to the company an international aura. Next came Circles (2012), Cabaret Katatonia (2012), Super Sunday (2014), White Nights (2014), and Motosikai (2015). Inspired by the aesthetics of chaos, surprise situations, and unvarnished humor, these enfants terribles of the Finnish circus have no other ambition than to conquer the world. A huge task if ever there was one.
