Adelaide Fringe 2025 is set to witness an electrifying fusion of contemporary circus and feminist storytelling as Eye Catching Circus, the trailblazing Taiwanese company, returns with its critically acclaimed production, #Since1994.
After sellout performances in Avignon, Paris and Prague, this award-winning spectacle is back to challenge conventions, redefine femininity, and celebrate the strength of women through breathtaking acrobatics and thought-provoking performance art.
At the heart of #Since1994 is the creative vision of Chih-Ling MEI, a fearless innovator in the world of contemporary circus.
Determined to shatter stereotypes imposed on the female body, MEI has crafted a visually stunning, deeply emotional and profoundly relevant performance.
Featuring an all- female cast of world-class acrobats, this 60-minute masterpiece explores the challenges faced by young women under 30 in a world burdened with expectations.
Suspended from a symbolic frame, the performers shift between fierce competition and unwavering support, illustrating the complexities of self-discovery in a society that constantly defines who women should be.
#Since1994 was the recipient of a Weekly Circus Award at Adelaide Fringe 2024, solidifying its place as one of the most powerful and innovative productions in contemporary circus. Critics and audiences alike have praised its breathtaking choreography, intense physicality and emotional depth.
