Agenda 29 Augustus - 04 September 2021

Moya is an acrobatic art film, rooted in South African culture and seen through the eyes of our youth. Through the use of traditional circus disciplines, as well as indigenous dance, certain scenes subtly address social injustices, others revisit the history of cultural art forms and explore themes such as brotherhood and fraternity despite race. Moya is a strong representation of what Zip Zap Circus ultimately stands for. It is a reflection of the past, present and future of this multicultural cast and nation, which is celebrated through the beauty of art and movement to bring people together. Watch onDemand (available from 6 August)
