Phare Circus Springs to Sydney Festival 2024<\/h2>\n

Hold onto your hats, folks, because Phare Circus is gearing up to hit Australia with their uniquely Cambodian story-telling circus for the third time! Yep, you heard that right \u2013 it’s a three-peat!<\/p>\n

It all started Down Under when they wowed the crowds at the Oz Asia Festival in Adelaide back in 2016. Maybe you remember the 50-year storm<\/a> that hit when they were there? Coincidence? Not sure.. Then, in 2019, they took the Darwin Festival by storm. Now, it’s Sydney’s turn to experience the magic as we make our debut at the Sydney Festival<\/a> in January 2024.<\/p>\n

But wait, there’s more! These circus virtuosos are bringing the heat, having just wrapped up their electrifying debut in Montreal at La Tohu<\/a> in November 2023 and spreading their wings in New York City at the New Victory Theater<\/a> in December 2023.<\/p>\n

Before they jet off to Sydney, the Phare Circus “White Gold<\/a>” artists are squeezing in a quick visit back home to Cambodia. Picture this: hugs with their families, savoring some delicious homemade Cambodian food, a swift change of clothes, and then, zoom… off to Australia!<\/p>\n

\u201cWhite Gold\u201d<\/h2>\n

\u201cWhite Gold<\/a>\u201d follows an individual and his community as they balance the demands of the modern world, community and Buddhist teachings of moderation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhite Gold\u201d refers to the role of rice in Cambodia. The story begins with a celebration of people\u2019s respect for rice. After damaging his father\u2019s mandala by accident, our leading character finds himself thrown from his village, into a world where rice becomes commerce and hard labor. As the community\u2019s values shift towards monetary interest, they find themselves plunged into competition, jealousy, greed, self-interest.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
