Nofit State brings extraordin­ary new circus show to Stoke-on-trent

JOIN NOFIT STATE FOR AN INCREDIBLE NEW SHOW UNDER THE BIG TOP

Nofit State’s exciting new circus show, Sabotage, has just arrived in Stoke-on-trent.

Almost 10 years on from Nofit State’s first performanc­e in Stoke-on-trent, with 2013’s Bianco, the UK circus company has again partnered with Appetite - as well as the New Vic Theatre - to bring its newest production, Sabotage, to Stoke.

Nofit State also previously brought its Open House show to the region in 2014, and later Lexicon - which premiered in Newcastleu­nder-lyme in 2018 as part of a wrap-around programme of community engagement, artist residencie­s, circus conference and convention.

The spectacula­r new show, Sabotage which recently had a sold-out world premiere in Pembrokesh­ire - is not like a traditiona­l circus, but is unique and packed full of breathtaki­ng entertainm­ent.

Darker and grittier, with a more subversive edge, expect a boisterous performanc­e with the circus’ trademark large-scale spectacle, awe-inspiring circus acts, new apparatus, exceptiona­l original music, live projection­s, and more theatrical elements.

The show is not made for kids, but there is nothing in Sabotage that makes it unsuitable for the young ones.

Sabotage will also be ending its 2022 tour in Cardiff right after the shows in Stoke, so don’t miss the chance to see the spectacula­r show for yourself!

Sabotage will be in Stoke-on-trent for a limited time, from June 23 to July 10, 2022.

The show will be performed in Nofit State’s very own Big Top, located on the grounds of Central Forest Park, Chell Street, Hanley, ST1 6BB. There is a car park close to the tent.
