Short description
Two artists, two Cyr wheels, and a world of drums. OPA FASHION is a hybrid circus performance brimming with unique instrument inventions, technological wonders, vocals, and dance. Traditional folk music meets contemporary circus in an exploration of brotherly telepathy. Combining their differences and refined talents, the artists create a captivating show full of playful improvisation, intense physicality, and striking visuals and costumes. All of this is shaped by their shared heritage, growing up as siblings in a large family in rural Sweden.
