👋 Hey Ithaca! We're here! Come take some fun circus workshops while we're in town @circusculture .
Plus come see "I Think It Could Work" @thecherryarts May 15 - 17
Links in bio! Workshops this Saturday May 9th:
🌱 Game, Image, Task 12:30-2pm
An approachable, training-agnostic way to view and create contemporary physical performance. Under this framework, we think of game, image, and task as three distinct modes of action in performance: what a performer does. No experience required, all disciplines welcome. 18+.
💥 Toss & Towers 2:30-4pm
In this workshop we will focus on toss (swing) and towers (stacks, two highs, three highs). We’ll cover more traditional skills and work our way up to some lesser known combos. Come prepared to play in groups. 18+.
💕 Acro Jam 4-5:30pm (donation based / PWYC)
This acro jam is open to anyone with at least some previous acro experience! Bring something to work on or seek inspiration day-of with Kevin, Sierra, and Liam of Full Out Formula.
🎪 "I Think It Could Work" @thecherryarts
A courageous and intimate leap into the unexpected. With bright colors, innovative acrobatics, and unflinching trust, this Chicago-based contemporary circus trio invites you into a speculative world where your choices decide their destiny. What in our lives happens by chance, and what can we make happen on purpose? Heartbreak, mistakes and consequences become the fabric of a circus you’ve never seen before— live, improvised, honest, and unforgettable.

FULL OUT FORMULA is a circus collective that makes people believe in the possibilities of their own world. It’s a sneaky but feral rebellion based in Chicago,founded in 2023 by company members Sierra Rhoades Nicholls, Kevin Flanagan and Liam Bradley. Produced in partnership with the ground breaking Almanac Projects, supporting genre-defying performances across continents!
“Of all the show’s I saw in Edinburgh over three full days, this is the one that keeps coming back to my mind.”
- Anne Heinonen, THE CIRCUS DIARIES

There’s no other way to say it—the first night of Full Out Formula’s Variety Shebang truly cooked! Chicago needs a playful variety show that brings circus and movement and puppet and music together, right!?
My show is sold out tonight, so I can forgive them the scheduling competition and whole-heartedly send you tonight to show two (with a whole new line up!) of the Shebang. Visit @fulloutformula for more deets and follow them for future opportunities to perform.

NEW WORKSHOP ALERT—Loosen up and leap with Full Out Formula company members!
Sign ups are live for this add on—Physical Theatre Workshop: Partner Acrobatics - Weight Sharing, Counterbalances & Lifts
(Otherwise known as best date idea ever!)(Or come solo and make new pals-partner not required🤸🏿♂️)
Immersive and participatory. This workshop is for everyone! No prerequisites or prior experience with partner acrobatics necessary. We will explore different modes of partner and group acrobatics together as well as build tools for placing acrobatics into theater for enhancing storytelling. After a thorough and fun warm up, the workshop will begin with some simple counterbalances and weight sharing exercises, we will then use those building blocks to move into slightly more complex acrobatics. We will show you our versions of certain skills and then ask you to expand upon them. The workshop will end with group exercises where we use the tools and skills learned to start to infuse acrobatics into storytelling.
🗓️Thursday, June 4th, 10 a.m.- 1 p.m. | Taught by Sierra Rhoades Nicholls & Kevin Flanagan
📍Wirtz Center Chicago @ Abbot Hall 710 N Lakeshore Drive, Chicago IL 60611
Workshops are $55 each or buy a full workshop pass for $210.
