Feature Article Vol. III, No. 7
spectaclemagazine.com http://spectaclemagazine.com/?page_id=5556 Feature Article Vol. III, No. 7 A Tale of Three Cities There are, in various cities across American, many unique and individual centers of circus activity. Three cities, however, stand out for the volume and variety of circus passion that has taken root within their borders. Our correspondents from Chicago and San Francisco, Kim Campbell and Judy Finelli, respectively and I, working in the New York City area, have put together a compendium of each of these cities numerous circus outlets. To avoid playing favorites the organization here is from East to West. The New York City Circus Community It is well to remember that New York City is made up of five boroughs, and the character of the circus and the community that surrounds it differs from one borough to the next. I’ll Take Manhattan Manhattan is, of course, famous for its glittering Broadway and off-Broadway theatre, but the circus occasionally makes forays here as well as other boroughs that might seem at first glance to be more hospitable and affordable, such as Brooklyn for instance, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. Current and recent circus productions that have found a home and success in Manhattan include the long running Slava’s Snow Show and the 5 Fingers production Traces, both of which had extended stays at the off-Broadway venue Union Square Theatre. The most recent tenant there was the cabaret/circus hybrid La Soiree. The New York Goofs have often used the off-Broadway theater aptly name the Flea for its productions when in town, and has run its Ultimate Clown School in the city for many years.

CAL PERFORMANCES 15 PROGRAM PROGRAM SÉQUENCE D HE MEETING OF TWO personalities is like the contact of two chemical Tsubstances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.”—C. G. Jung Our eighth and newest creation carries emotional dynamics to a point of explosion and propulsion. In this show we find emotions so heightened they spring into action, re- lationships that transform and evolve until they create actual velocity. Set not in a specific time or place but rather on a vertical canvas of sorts, this acrobatic dance and theater piece contemplates the role of the “other,” and how we define ourselves through and against it.

How We Play—Is How We Live
When was the last time you played? “The opposite of play is not work. It’s depression.”* Brian Sutton-Smith, Play Theorist Play, in its purest form, extends beyond the innate intelligence of our biological processes raising two puzzling questions: How? and Why? How does play work in our lives? And, why are we born with this ability? Studies show that play is paramount to the development of young children. The lack of it can be the catalyst for many social, physical, and cognitive disorders throughout childhood, adolescence, and even adulthood. Research has proven that play is the way children learn about the world around them. Now as an adult, I find myself asking, does play serve a purpose outside of our childhood and adolescence? And, why do some of us stop playing as we get older... or do we really? From childhood to present, play has consumed me. I am an artist who thrives off creativity. I am a practitioner of capoeira, an Afro-Brazilian ritualized martial art form that is described as “playing” not “fighting.” It is no exaggeration to state that play is a fundamental part of my life. And with 13 years of experience as a teacher, I have spent most of my days with the master players I refer to as young people. From the San Francisco Bay Area to East Africa, my interactions with young people range from homework assistance to outside supervision to basketball coaching, circus acrobatics, and of course, capoeira. My lifestyle is centered around the things that I enjoy most (photography, film, children, capoeira, circus, and travel).
