Since taking the Edinburgh Festival by storm in 2007, followed by sell-out seasons in London’s West End, New York, Paris and Montreal, the award-winning Traces arrives at The Lowry.

Traces is a high-energy, dazzling display of urban acrobatics, which combines traditional circus skills with basketball, skateboarding, a mix of street and contemporary dance, traditional theatre, humour and amazing audio visual effects. Set to a soundtrack that includes Hip Hop, rock ‘n’ roll, blues and classical music, this infectious, funky, pioneering brand of circus is a thrill-a-minute that will leave you begging for more.

The five ultra-talented performers reveal snippets of their own personal stories throughout the show, drawing the audience in until the dramatic climax leaves them on the edge of their seats, willing them to pull off the seemingly impossible.

‘So thrilling, it will surely make an entire generation run away and join the circus.’ The Guardian

‘A spectacular delight that will rob you of your breath.’ The Sunday Times

‘They know how sensational they are – and if they don’t, the spontaneous standing ovations they’re getting should do the trick.’ The Daily Telegraph

‘Eye-poppingly good.’ Evening Standard

‘Mesmeric, spontaneous and unpretentious – these are guys you’d really like hanging out with.’ Metro

‘One of the most creative and inspiring pieces of entertainment I’ve ever witnessed.’ The Sun
