Apricity by Casus Creations

For the first time, the National Institute of Circus Arts (NICA) is the home of circus for Melbourne Fringe Festival 2023 with the support of the Australia Council for the Arts, the State Government of Victoria, Melbourne Fringe, and the City of Stonnington.

NICA will support independent artists and small to medium companies to present works within NICA’s renowned venue, the NICA National Circus Centre, in Prahran.

Internationally renowned Brisbane based circus company is debuting their brand-new work Apricity (top right), starring graduates from NICA. Apricity is an awe-inspiring contemporary circus show that illuminates the power of human connection in times of darkness. Renowned for their theatrical and artistic vision, Casus weaves exquisite imagery with world-class circus artistry in a symphony of aerial apparatuses, ground-breaking acrobatics, and graceful movement intertwined with a touch of humour.
