Zip Zap Circus presents 'Chasing Dreams': a celebration of talent

Zip Zap Circus is back with a brand-new production that promises to captivate audiences and ignite their imaginations. Titled 'Chasing Dreams', this exhilarating show is set to be bigger, bolder, and more breathtaking than ever before. It is not merely a performance; it is a heartfelt celebration of the journey, legacy, and future of Zip Zap, encapsulating the spirit of pursuing dreams.

Audiences are invited to witness a rare showcase featuring performers at every stage of their artistic journey. From the youngest Zappers, who are just beginning to chase their dreams, to the Dare2Dream students forging a future in circus, and the seasoned professionals from the Professional Troupe—this show promises to demonstrate the incredible capabilities of each performer.

Under the guidance of the Zip Zap family, the show aims to inspire with jaw-dropping aerial feats, high-energy acrobatics, and explosive choreography, all set to a soundtrack that resonates with viewers of all ages. This multi-layered production encapsulates the essence of dreams—those that are still forming, those that are being realised, and those that continually push boundaries in pursuit of excellence.

The narrative follows The Dreamer, who awakens in a world where she is uncertain if she is still asleep or has entered reality. Embarking on an incredible journey through a series of acts, she learns to chase her dreams and confront her fears. Ultimately, her determination will lead her to achieve her crowning moment—a daring double somersault to catch, symbolising the triumph over challenges.

Mark your calendars for this unmissable event at the Zip Zap Dome on Jan Smuts Street in Cape Town, taking place on 12, 13, 19, and 20 July, with shows at 11:00 and 15:00. Tickets are affordably priced at R150, and children under three are free. Be sure to book your tickets through Quicket for a chance to experience the magic that Zip Zap Circus is renowned for.
