Groupe Acrobatique de Tangier - Zimmermann and de Perrot

2012

An Explosion of Activity

History isn’t done yet with the present as, in the five years between 2007 and 2012, LIMF celebrates a 30th anniversary and NoFit State and Circomedia reach a 25th, Ockham’s Razor scale up to their big show The Mill, Rose English works with members of Shanghai Acrobatics Troupe, Gandini Juggling continue their extraordinary creative fertility, and the various members of the Chaplin-Thiérrée family proliferate. Increasing numbers of companies come in from overseas – Groupe Acrobatique de Tangier & Zimmermann and de Perrot (pictured), Race Horse Company, The 7 Fingers, Compagnie XY, Circa, Compagnie 111 – and UK circus schools take on ever more students. Within this conflux of influences, new artists are born.
