Description
The myth of regenesis following the silence of a perished world is explored in Paradisum, where the body is the medium, the movement is the common language. The creatures of this idyllic existence emerge from the fabric of life pulsating around them with its continuously transforming, whirling force of nature as they move through scenes of purgation, nativity, awakening and rite to reach the anima mundi (world soul). After IMA (2023) and My Land (2018), Recirquel returns with a new premier directed by Bence Vági, creating an ethereal terminology utilising cirque dance to discuss humanity's global concerns.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Quite the most spectacular and physically amazing show I have EVER seen... I have seen the human body do things I didn't even know were possible... the athleticism of the troupe is second to none... They deserve every drop of praise anyone can throw at them..Superlatives escape me!... Brilliant, awe inspiring, breath taking, simply the best! :o)

The show was entrancing and misterious, with very few technical hiccups. The music and lights elevated the choreography to my top show of the year, and I am looking forward to the group coming back next year.

Extraordinary!!! Totally mesmerizing. Such beautiful ethereal emotive performances making these insanely skilled feats of physicality seem other worldly, with seamless flow and power. So impactful and impressive. The lighting and staging really intensifies and frames the performances beautifully and holistically, it's perfectly created for the space and audience. World class in every way.

So far my favourite show this year! It was a profound experience. The acrobatics are mindboggling and beautiful, the choreography, music and visual effects all are mesmerising, but most of all, the aesthetics and dramaturgy convey a depth and meaning that completely escape what words can describe. Somehow the show managed to touch me deeply and leave a glowing light in me behind.

Holy wow. There are no words to describe this show. I work in the circus and dance industry and I can assure you that this is art at it's best. The cast, direction, choreography, execution, EVERYTHING about this show is so incredibly well done my only regret is not having the chance to see it many more times. By far the highlight of my Fringe experience. Inspiration, art and beauty for the soul. DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW.

Everything about this show is so gorgeous and impressive. The performers are INSANELY strong and talented. The set, lighting, music, and effects are breathtaking. I was absolutely swept away in the beauty, skill, and expert execution throughout the whole thing. 5/5 absolutely recommend!

An outstanding show, which managed to incorporate stunning visual effects with an amazing performance. It creates an otherworldly vibe, where sound, light, dance and acrobatics combine together seamlessly. Highly recommend.
