<p>At least, that’s what she claims. Journalist Jack Walser wants to expose her during a deep-dive interview for her series 'The Greatest Con Artists in the World'. But when Jack steps into Fere's dressing room, her reason proves no match for the legendary storyteller that Fere is. She shares stories of her childhood in a brothel, how she ended up in a cabinet of curiosities, and how she learned to fly. Jack becomes so enchanted by Fere that she joins the circus as a clown. Thus begins a wondrous journey – from London to Saint Petersburg and deep into the Siberian tundra – in the hope of finding an answer to the question: is Fere reality or a figment of imagination?</p><p>Circus Nights is a wondrous tale that makes reality tremble and replaces fear of the future with hope and enthusiasm. This adaptation of Angela Carter's book is an ode to women who take up space and to the power of storytelling. Because stories will shape our future; whether they are true or not.</p>

In the performance 'Circusnachten', you will see a magical-realist show about Fere: a world-famous trapeze artist with wings.
