Whatever the Weather

Whatever the Weather is a circus show created and produced by Hringleikur Circus Company in 2021. Touring of the show is in collaboration with MurMur Productions

Whatever the Weather is a contemporary circus show that examines the relationship between the weather and ourselves. Weather has always been a major factor of life in the northern latitudes, but modern technology, transportation, and culture has minimized the direct effect of weather on our daily lives. Through acrobatics, aerials, strong visual images and quirky humour Hringleikur draws out the effect that the weather can have on us - the emotions, the energy, the stories. ​Whatever the Weather is Hringleikur’s first fully produced show and received Gríman, the Iceland Theatre Awards 2021 for best stage movement.

Whatever the Weather exists both as an indoor and outdoor version. The production premiered in Tjarnarbíó Theatre in 2021 and the following summer the production toured in Iceland and had shows in various locations, ranging from city squares to Icelandic national parks, wilderness and nature. The production has since then been shown on regular basis nationally and internationally

The show travels lightly and can be performed in a variety of settings and locarion. For more information contact the productions tour manager Ragnheiður Maísól Sturludóttir.
