The Cyr Wheel Meeting is a self-managed activity by the artists, centered around a specific artistic vision: pushing the Cyr wheel toward new artistic horizons through the development and evolution of each participant’s personal approach.

The laboratory ‘The Practice: Staging the Creative Process’ is the second of three research and creation labs taking place at La Central del Circ during 2025, as part of the 360º Accompaniment Circuit initiative within the 2nd Circus Impulse Plan (2023–2026), led by the Centre de les Arts del Circ Rogelio Rivel (CACRR) and La Central del Circ (LCC).

The aim of this lab is to share the creative process through collective feedback and to achieve coherence between the artistic dossier and the staging.

The lab involves artists selected through the Trànsits 2025 open call and students from the Centre de les Arts del Circ Rogelio Rivel.

The 4th meeting, ‘Circus Artists and Dissidences’, will take place on Wednesday, April 24 at 6 p.m. at the Konvent, Cal Rosal (Berguedà), as part of the Kontrast Festival. It will focus on gender and sexual diversity, aiming to give voice to women and dissident (LGBTIQ+) artists within the circus world. We propose an intergenerational dialogue space where the body is reclaimed as a political tool, and where the need for a gender perspective in constructing circus narratives is emphasized.
