"A fusion of wonder and beauty."
Bringing a beautifully refreshing take on circus to Underbelly’s Circus Hub at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe is Japan’s Cirquework with their latest show YOAH.
Combining traditional aerial and acrobatic stunts with their contemporary style, Cirquework impresses and captivates through creative and innovative use of lights, sounds, and other visual elements including a digital backdrop.
With typical circus acts like the trapeze swing, chair stacking balancing act, and juggling, set to a synthesised score of Japanese sounds, the performances are a fusion of wonder and beauty.
Cirquework’s YOAH is a revitalising sensory spectacle that surprises in ways that the circus world have never seen before.

EDINBURGH FESTIVAL FRINGE
For three weeks in August, the city of Edinburgh welcomes an explosion of creative energy from around the globe. Artists and performers take to hundreds of stages all over the city, presenting shows for every taste. Venues can be anywhere, from existing theatres and concert halls to repurposed spaces like bars, parks, buses and shipping containers. The Fringe street events bring colour, excitement and vibrancy to outdoor areas, free of charge.
From big names in the world of entertainment to unknown artists looking to build their careers, the festival spans every genre of live performance, including theatre, comedy, dance, physical theatre, circus, cabaret, children's shows, musicals, opera, music, spoken word, exhibitions and events.
The Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, a registered charity, is the company that organises the structure that underpins the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The level of commitment required for such an undertaking would not be possible if it weren’t for the enthusiasm of the people of Edinburgh, combined with the longstanding support of our audiences, sponsors, supporters and the goodwill of the Fringe Friends and Angels.
The Fringe Society strives to provide support that exceeds participant and public expectations, and we ask you to join us in supporting this challenge. Every penny you give makes a difference, helping us to develop the services we provide for performers and audience.
There are a number of ways of supporting the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, from one-off donations to becoming a Fringe Friend.
