In this volume Social Circus is explored in depth by three Circus Studies scholars working with the aim of creating new ways of engaging with the field. Lavers, Burtt, and Bochud investigate the way that Social Circus transforms in response to its immediate environment, and particularly its social, political, and cultural context. Extensively illustrated, with photos of different Social Circuses around the world, and extensively annotated, Circus for Social Change: Social Circus in Context provides a portal into ways of seeing todays Social Circus and is of interest to practitioners and scholars. Social Circuses explored in this volume include Cirqiniq in far North Canada; Galway Community Circus in the Republic of Ireland; Zip Zap Circus in Cape Town, South Africa; Circus Harmony in St. Louis, Missouri; Circus Laheto in Central Brazil; Womens Circus in Melbourne, Australia; the Mobile Mini Childrens Circus (the MMCC) in various locations across Afghanistan; Cirque Hors Piste in Montreal, Canada; Sencirk in Dakar, Senegal; the Slow Circus Academy in Yokohama, JDS/Juggling de Shinshu, and the Moon Night Project in Nagano, Japan; Ponleu Selpaks Performing Arts School and Phare Circus in Cambodia; Sirkus Magenta in Helsinki, Finland; and Le Plus Petit Cirque du Monde in Bagneux in the outskirts of Paris, France. This book will be of great interest to the general reader, to practitioners working within social circus or arts for social change, and to scholars, teachers, and students in schools, colleges, and universities interested in finding out more about social circus and arts for social change.
