「世界等級的特技，完全就是我們來到現場期待看見的！在導演巧妙安排下，演出展現了歎為觀止的優雅，卻同時有著令人抵擋不住的喜感，美妙的編織，在坐席間擴散著歡樂！」——雪梨晨鋒報

 「全家都必看的演出！」——英國〈EDINBURGH LIFE WITH KIDS〉雜誌

 「無論什麼年齡層，大家都喧鬧熱情開懷大笑，音樂讓旋轉木馬以瘋狂的速度轉動。」——布里斯本時報

 「⋯⋯好看得要瘋了，充滿魔力的演出⋯⋯」——英國衛報

音樂的力量，馬戲團的魅力

一場嘻笑大鬧的終極趴踢

即將挑逗你的發笑神經

 

以史上最具瘋狂玩心的音樂天才莫札特為主題，三位表演者包辦肢體表演與現場手風琴，不僅帶來一首又一首孩子絕不能不認識的俏皮神曲，還化身為馬戲團的一員，展現了驚心動魄的表演：旋轉、跳躍，懸空的椅子跟指揮棒，還成為車輪上的音樂家！

 

被法國極具權威的經濟類媒體〈回聲報〉譽為「馬戲界的一股革命」的澳洲頂尖馬戲團隊——瑟卡馬戲團，擅長創作讓三歲及以上的人驚嘆的作品。此次以技巧和具啟發性的表演重新詮釋莫札特的神奇音樂，透過充滿活力的肢體喜劇和調皮捉弄的戲法呈現，邀請您來發現這位作曲家才華洋溢的創意與他生動活潑的作品。

【About the Performance】

Straight from the score and onto the stage, the man known as Mozart appears amid a storm of powder, tumbling and twirling, as musical mayhem and movement fuse in this family show with a circus twist.

 

To those who know him, he is Wolfgang, the dart-playing troublemaker. To those who are watching and listening, he is the wigged genius Mozart. Come and discover his irrepressible spirit and vibrant compositions through physical comedy and mischievous antics.

 

Designed to amaze people from the age of three and upwards, Wolfgang’s Magical Musical Circus reinvents the composer’s magical music in a skilful and illuminating show featuring Circa’s dexterous daredevil artists and a live accordionist. Watch as the notes are physically lifted off the page as performers bring the renowned compositions to life amidst a storm of powder, tumbles and crashes, all under the eccentric swirl of the conductor’s baton.

Circa Contemporary Circus is one of the world's leading performance companies. Since 2004, from its base in Brisbane, Australia, Circa has toured the world - performing in more than 40 countries to over 1.5 million people. Circa's works have been greeted with standing ovations, rave reviews and sold-out houses across six continents. 

Circa is at the forefront of the new wave of contemporary Australian circus - pioneering how extreme physicality can create powerful and moving performances. It continues to push the boundaries of the art form, blurring the lines between movement, dance, theatre and circus. Compelled by the question ‘what is possible in circus?’ Circa is leading the way with a diverse range of thrilling creations that ‘redraw the limits to which circus can aspire.’ (The Age). 

Under the direction of circus visionary Yaron Lifschitz, Circa features an ensemble of exceptional, multi-skilled circus artists who have been a regular fixture at leading festivals and venues in New York, London, Berlin and Montreal with seasons at Brooklyn Academy of Music, The Barbican Centre, Les Nuits de Fourvière, Chamäleon Theatre as well as major Australian Festivals.
