Resulting from a decision undertaken by La Central four months ago, a gender commission has been implemented whose goal will be to create an environment which espouses equality, respect and non-violence. As members of the commission, together we will foster a space for reflection, learning and joint change.

Meetings will be open to all community members and will take place every first Tuesday of the month at 1pm.

The Under Construction demonstrations are a very special moment of presentation by individual artists and companies that reveal a first phase of their personal research. The aim is that these artists can confront the first stage of their research with an accomplice audience.

After the demonstration, a conversation takes place between the artists and the audience in order to open up and stimulate observation of the work presented and reflection on the work itself. Under Construction takes place once every month and a half or every two months, on Thursday afternoons.

Artists interested in participating must contact the artistic coordination of La Central: coordinacioart@lacentraldelcirc.cat

Dialogue table ‘Dramaturgy’ with Chiara Marchese, as part of the 360º Support Circuit of the Circus Promotion Plan (2023–2026).

To reflect on the concept of dramaturgy in circus creation, we will host circus artist and author Chiara Marchese, who has just premiered Wonder Woman, the final piece of an autobiographical trilogy that also includes Mavara (2016) and Le poids de l’âme. Tout est provisoire (2021, Circusnext Laureate).

Chiara Marchese trained in visual arts in Catania, Sicily. After self-taught experiences in tightrope walking, she joined the CNAC in Châlons-en-Champagne, where she resumed her artistic research and incorporated work with contemporary puppets.

The 360º Support Circuit roundtables are informal spaces for exchanging experiences related to artistic questions, knowledge, and reflections, led by established artists and companies.

This event is aimed at emerging contemporary circus artists based in Catalonia.

Through the Trànsits residency program, the aim is not only to support contemporary circus research and creation—conceived as practices and forms capable of contributing perspectives and dialogue to contemporary debates—but also to foster the intersection of disciplines and viewpoints.

This year’s residency modalities are as follows:

• Research Trànsits (supported by the ‘Barcelona Crea Grants – Creative Factories’) – Two grants will be awarded

• Creation Trànsits – Five grants will be awarded

• T.E.S.T! (Technical Sensation Scenic Trànsit) – One grant will be awarded

• Community Creation Trànsit (supported by the ‘Barcelona Crea Grants – Creative Factories’) – One grant will be awarded

Residencies will take place between January and December 2026. The specific dates will be arranged with each company based on their availability and that of the spaces.
(Please note: La Central del Circ does not provide accommodation for resident companies.)
