Inspiration
The Circus combines the world of contemporary circus with one of the iconic and immediately recognisable elements of circus tradition: the classic traveling circus tents, used since the 19th century.
When one of this tent arrives in a town it is immediately clear to everyone what it means: the circus is arrived!
The performances draw inspiration both from the more classic ones such as juggling and from performances of contemporary circus, where the artists are the protagonists and also become actors in their performances by personifying the characteristics of different animals or fictional characters.
The building, playabilty and storytelling
The "roof" of the tent can be removed making the interior completely accessible.
The central stage with the two support poles of the tent can be removed to position the various artists with their equipment (trapeze, circle, swing ecc.). So you can easily alternate between different performances.
Eleven minifigures allow you to create numerous stories and performances: a ringmaster, six artists and four spectators. However, other minifigures can also be accommodated, there is room for everyone in the stands and the circus is always looking for new artists and performances!
