The #CircusVoices development scheme is an initiative to build a culture of critical discourse around circus arts, inspired by the Unpack The Arts programme, but focused on introducing critical vocabularies to the circus industry, rather than circus languages to existing arts journalists.
In 2017, we held an edition outside of Edinburgh Festival Fringe for the first time, hosted by Circus City festival in Bristol. This shorter programme allowed a much larger group of diverse circus practitioners to explore varied strands of critical discourse over 3 days.
