July 12, 7pm; July 13, 2pm and 7pm; July 14, 2pm
Circus Center, San Francisco's leading circus training center since 1984, presents the world premiere of JUMP//FALL, performed by the Bay Area's top troupe of young circus artists, the San Francisco Youth Circus. Directed by Circus Center Artistic Director Juliana Neves, JUMP//FALL is a contemporary circus exploration of how we approach the decisions that shape our lives.
The year is 2028. The world has finally found common wealth and well being for all. There are no more conflicts. There is a universal income for all. Peace, harmony, and prosperity are there for everyone... Nevertheless, some questions stubbornly remain...
Should I go here or there?
Should I dance or lean against the wall?
Should I hear or should I listen?
...Another day begins...
Do I Jump or Fall?
JUMP//FALL director Juliana Neves is Circus Center's Artistic Director and Head of School. "My life in the circus has been filled with literal jumps and falls, of course," says Neves. "This show takes these physical movements as a metaphor for how people approach decisions in their lives. Do you leap headlong into a decision, or do you find yourself falling into a choice?" Through acrobatic daring, aerial grace, nimble juggling and more, eleven young artists will show audiences how they choose in love, in work, in friendship, and in life.
$15-30.
Presented by Circus Center.
