Jacksons Lane has announced that it will reopen its doors to the public on 21 September with the world premiere of brand new circus cabaret Luminosa.

Jacksons Lane is the flagship arts and cultural venue in Haringey, creating a year-round programme of the best contemporary circus and family performance, arts participation, cultural education and outreach work for its community and the arts sector. The historic building has been closed since November 2020 to undergo a transformative redevelopment, designed to improve accessibility, create a better audience experience, modernise the studio spaces and provide a flexible working environment.

As it reaches the final stages of completion the building will reopen with the world premiere of circus cabaret Luminosa running from 21-29 September. Presented by Jacksons Lane and Lost in Translation – one of the UK’s leading circus ensembles, touring internationally throughout the year – Luminosa will be a sizzling, scintillating night of daring feats with fun and fantastic performance. Audiences can expect dance in the sky, jaw-dropping juggling, tipsy hoop swirling, live music, laughter and more in this super-fun, feel-good show.

       

Featuring the very best of British and international circus artists, Luminosa will be the perfect show to welcome audiences back to the new minted building, with tickets starting at just £10.

Other highlights in the re-opening season include: the London Premiere of Circolombia’s Ves-Tigios, featuring extravagant visions, terrifying acrobatics, unthinkable magic moments, and extraordinary circus skills; Hangwire Showcase a mixed bill from seven circus artists and companies awarded new commissions by Jacksons Lane earlier this year, incorporating elements of hip-hop puppetry, dance and stunning visuals over two thrilling nights; Brain Fools’ Lucky Pigeons, a mix of absurd and extravagant theatre, impressive acrobatics, empathetic and funny stories, with a pinch of satirical spice, and the first work-in-progress showing from a new young Jacksons Lane-supported circus company; Laura Murphy: Contra, a solo-cabaret of contradictions interrogating personal, social and historical occupations of the female body returning to Jacksons Lane after its 2019 sell-out run; and
