Birmingham City University has partnered with Birmingham City Council to develop a programme of events and exhibitions to commemorate the 250th anniversary of circus. This will take a creative look at the history of circus and its origins in the 18th century.
The programme is part of the city’s ‘Year of Movement,’ a year long series of events, exhibitions and performances taking place across Birmingham.

This coming Saturday 30th June 2018 from 2-4pm there will be a fantastic opportunity to see some of our students in action.
Our BA (Hons) Applied Performance students will be holding some short pieces of 10 minute long circus themed performances across various parts of the Library during the afternoon.

Mainly taking place in the Children’s Library – all the performances will showcase our students work and also engage with the community.
