Sensazione
August 7-10
St George’s Plateau, Liverpool
You could play a part in bringing this amazing theatrical spectacle to life.
The funfair is a colourful world of mobile entertainment, light and noise, where a sensation-seeking crowd meets strange and exciting show characters.
Sensazione is unlike any funfair you have seen before – it runs on physical energy and the enthusiasm of the audience: the rides won’t start moving until you use your muscles!
Once past the gateway, you are free to roam the fairground - a colourful carnival where show people bombard you with tales of wonder and extraordinary requests.
Laika and Time Circus have joined forces to bring this magical show to Liverpool.
Time Circus Collective, a travelling company from Antwerp, has built Sensazione with commitment and daring - its a place where man truly blends with machine and boundaries are blurred between artists and visitors.
Come down and enjoy all the fun of the fair!
