\"\"<\/p>\n

Circus Oz 2013: Cranked Up<\/strong> hurls the 2012 show, From The Ground Up, to new heights \u2013 it is a production that\u00a0 has been honed, road?hardened, made tight and allowed to play hilariously fast and loose.\u00a0 Expect the irreverent Circus Oz spirit, revel in seeing some of the company\u2019s much?loved characters again and\u00a0 thrill at some daring new feats as Mark Sheppard steps into the shoes of roving Indigenous\u00a0 provocateur\u00a0 destined to disrupt nongoing brand of ridiculous tomfoolery that leaves audiences howling for more.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Credited with revitalising a traditional artform in a uniquely Australian way, Circus Oz<\/strong> is a rock \u2018n\u2019 roll, animalfree\u00a0 circus that has influenced the development of circus arts around the world since its foundation in 1978 \u2013\u00a0 and this year turns 35!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201c\u2026 no?bullshit Australian culture, which grabs our audience by the throat and makes us cheer the daredevils on, laugh,\u00a0<\/em> and be made aware of social justice all at once. This is the art of Circus Oz \u2026\u201d<\/em>
\nCanberra Critics Circle (October 2012)<\/p>\n

\u201cA blend of high energy acrobatics, juggling, magic, exuberant clowning and all around derring?do, accompanied by a pounding rock score.\u201d<\/em>
\nNew York Post (December 2012)<\/p>\n

\u201cThe group adds comedy and music, making the aerial routines about more than mere prowess\u00a0<\/em> \u2026 a little naughty, a little nice, a little death?defying.\u201d<\/em>
\nNew York Times (December 2012)<\/p>\n

\u201cThe daring feats on trapeze and poles and unlikely equipment keep your heart in your mouth while the mildly raunchy verbal byplay and\u00a0<\/em> failed card tricks hold the attention of the adults who actually buy the tickets.\u201d<\/em>
