For the past few seasons Triko’s performers have been working on theatre clown shows with Lee Delong. She has led many master classes and directed five shows in the style of theatre clown with Triko: Peanuts  (2011), Nightingale (2012), Two and a half sisters (2012), Night of the living clowns  (2013) and Feydeau…re..mi… (2014).

Our mission is to enhance the Croatian culture with clown theatre, not only by producing shows in such a style, but also through workshops and master classes for professional performers, actors, dancers and singers.

We have promoted Croatian theatre clown scene in Croatia and abroad with performances of our shows on numerous festivals.

In 2014 we have launched a project called CIRCUS PLATFORM, a unique opportunity for performers and artist to learn this style of theatre and to be able to perform it before audiences because a clown doesn’t exist without his audience!

Last year, the project ended with a big clown cabaret FEYDEAU…RE…MI… inspired by the Feydeau’s farces. The show was selected to the main programme of the Croatian Independent Theatre Festival FEN and was played in Opatija in April.

This year’s project started in March with clown training led by Lee Delong, and continues throughout the year. It will be finished with a BUFFON workshop in October.

We are proud to say that our troop was the first Croatian troop to introduce aerial acrobatic skills to Croatia and wider. Beck then, we didn’t have any teachers here in Croatia so we had to seek tuition abroad.

Still, we successfully faced all the challenges and became a non formal school with dozens of participants in the last decade and a half. We have brought up not only good acrobats but also good teachers.

Aerial acrobatics is something common now, but still interesting and alluring!

At the moment, we have three groups and around 40 participant, aged 8 to 50. It is never too early or too late for circus!

In 2008 we organized 1st International Acrobatic Convention on the island of Korčula that was attended by more than 100 acrobats from all around the world. The convention is taking place every year in a different country. This year it will be Finland, and our acrobats will attend and give workshops.

We are also cooperating closely with American aerialist Sarah Bebe Holmes, the founder of American new circus troop Paper Doll Militia.  We have met Sarah on EAAC   (Edinbourgh Aerial Acrobatic Convention), another convention we visit on regular basis, and we organise master classes with her annually. Sarah is giving aerial acrobatic workshops all around the world and it is our pleasure to have her as our tutor and mentor!

Circus pedagogy has been in the interest of TRIKO CIRKUS TEATAR ever since it started its activity. We have brought circus closer to people that  didn’t have access to it and thought it was something reserved for ‘circus’ people. Our goal is dissemination of circus skills to all that have interest in it, to children, adults and elderly.

In 2015 we are organizing a lot of intensive workshops and all year workshops of acrobatic and juggling skills, along with open circus training.

And as Boris Radostev from Radostev Centre of Circus Art said, the aim is «to make unusual usual, usual easy, and easy beautiful!
