Double You is a circus performance based on the Fear of Missing Out. Five talented artists share two stages, separated by a fabric wall with the audience on either side. Shadows and sounds reach over the curtain. Why are they laughing over there? Are you missing something?

Double You is a social experiment around boundaries and identity that combines circus with acro-dance, parkour, Chinese pole and hand balancing. The two simultaneous performances, mutually exclusive yet interwoven, create one universal experience, with every spectator perceiving this exciting circus show in a different way.

Are you ready to overcome your FOMO?!

Archie (Age 12) - ★★★★★

"The acrobatics were amazing. There were several tightrope walking acts which looked incredibly dangerous but were very fun to watch and an impressive flip from one of the acroats. Throughout the show there are comedic performances such as them running in and out of the stage and a man playing an accordion. Aside from the acrobatics there was a little bit of music like patting their body to playing a full drum set."

Erynn (Age 11) - ★★★★

"The show was funny and entertaining while also managing to be impressive and having amazing stunts."

Stewart - ★★★★★
