Skylight Circus Arts Enthralls All Ages with Inclusive Circus Activities in Rochdale
Skylight Circus Arts, a renowned circus school situated near St Chad’s Parish Church on Sparrow Hill in Rochdale, is attracting individuals of all ages and abilities with its inclusive and non-competitive circus arts activities. Since its establishment in 1990, Skylight has been dedicated to providing supportive and sensitive experiences in their warm and friendly circus school.
Offering something for everyone, from the young to the elderly and from the physically challenged to the highly athletic, Skylight Circus Arts is a hub of excitement and creativity. Their upcoming events, exhibitions, and workshops promise an array of entertainment options for individuals residing in or around the Rochdale area.
Among the range of attractions, The Muxic Circle stands out as an artist-to-artist performance space, specifically catering to womxn, genderqueer, and LGBTQIA+ musicians. This exceptional platform provides a safe and supportive environment for these artists to showcase their talents. The next sessions are scheduled for Monday, October 30 and Monday, November 27, with a brief break planned for the month of December.
For those who appreciate art that delves deep into personal experiences, the exhibition Do you know the slope, the grain? This beautiful, sinking, fearless pain by musical artist Burning Salt (also known as Hannah Hull) is a must-see. Combining drawings, poetry, animation, and song, this collection explores the somatic experience of trauma. The exhibition opens on October 14 and runs until November 5.
Additionally, on October 25, there will be a Somatic Drawing and Writing Workshop led by Burning Salt. This workshop serves as an introduction to tapping into one’s body (soma) for inspiration in drawing and writing.
Recliner, an exclusive collaborative improvised performance by five creative powerhouses of Northwest sound, is set to captivate audiences on October 26 at 7pm. This unique event promises an enthralling experience that showcases the immense talent and creativity of these artists.
Moreover, maps highlighting these events will be available at various local businesses for a nominal price of £2. All proceeds will go towards Jolly Josh, the chosen charity for this year.
Skylight Circus Arts continues to provide an inclusive and engaging atmosphere where individuals can explore the world of circus arts, regardless of their age or abilities. With their upcoming events and activities, Skylight promises a thrilling experience for all circus enthusiasts in Rochdale and beyond.
