Two years in construction the new building, which was purpose-built for Circus Oz by the Victorian Government, features two rehearsal spaces that allows the Circus Oz artistic team to create and develop new shows under performance like conditions and also enables Circus Oz to expand their public and community classes, programs and activities. The house warming event includes free tours of the building, free juggling, hula or circus skill workshops and the rare opportunity to see the Circus Oz ensemble rehearse and develop their skills.
Later this year, Circus Oz are scheduled to set up its spectacular 100-year old Melba Spiegeltent at the Collingwood site, which will run as a live venue space for emerging and cutting edge artists and support the development of contemporary circus, including showcasing Circus Oz’s initiatives and programs.
