Shenanigans (6+)

An ode to the inner child
Festival De Betovering
Tue 20 Oct / Multiple times
Tue 20 Oct ’26

An interactive performance in which the performers share their own childhood dreams in the hopes of inspiring people young and old to never let go of theirs. 

Shenanigans is a circus performance for family audiences about the importance of playfulness, creativity and imagination throughout one’s whole lifetime. In Shenanigans, we follow the adventure of two characters going through a ritual to revive their inner children.

Through the series of juggling events, the characters playfully explore their relation to each other and their inner children. Ordinary toys, familiar to everyone, become the centerpiece of the performance. Through the manipulation of airplanes, toy tracks and an inflatable swimming pool, the performers invite the audience on a journey to reminisce about their own relationships to their inner children.
