zirkus on |
Zirkus ON is an initiative program put together in 2018 by the Bundesverband Zeitgenössischer Zirkus (BUZZ for short) to promote contemporary circus productions in Germany. At the end of 2021, Zirkus ON founded its own association with the support of BUZZ in order to do justice to the constant organizational and content-related expansion of the programme.
Every year, Zirkus ON accompanies three creations from Germany selected by a jury. For two years, the selected productions and their artists are professionalized through appropriate mentoring and the expertise of the alliance partners and receive long-term support in the development of their own works as well as significant and active support through regular and close exchange.
The artists have the opportunity to learn new things with and from each other within a protected space, to allow ideas to flourish and to fully immerse themselves in their creations.
The national alliance work of Zirkus ON is funded by the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media through the program Verbindungen fördern des Bundesverbands Freie Darstellende Künste e.V..
