LIMITS

We are capable of much more than we believe, if we dare to challenge our limits. For people in extraordinary circumstances, sometimes there is no choice but to take the leap.

The circus has long been a place to test frontiers and travel across boundaries. From traversing countries, to blurring disciplines, to touching the edges of what's possible with the body. At the circus, we're at home when we're not at home. So where better place to tell the stories of the displaced, of the struggling, and the astonishing resilience of fellow humans?

In an award-winning show, Cirkus Cirkör take dizzying risks, retell remarkable journeys and imagine a world without restrictions. 

Limits premiered in 2016 in Västmanlands Theatre. Followed by a tour across Europe, the United States, and Asia.
