Marmalade

This is a past event which has now ended.

MARMALADE is a delicious, tactile performance about meeting, mixing and blending. Two performers embody poetic movement and circus arts creating an exquisite and visual experience together with the audience. MARMALADE looks at the world through body, eye, feeling and taste in a room with fluffy skirts, soft circus and Fellini music.

MARMALADE premiered in Stockholm in the autumn of 2013 and has performed sold-out tours throughout Sweden and internationally to 15 different countries, including shows in New York City, Seoul, Havana and Singapore. In the fall of 2017, the company performed twenty sold-out performances at The New Victory Theater in New York, and in 2018, the company performed at The Kennedy Center in Washington DC as well as six performances in Seoul, South Korea. In 2019, MARMALADE performed at Festival Transitos in Havana, Cuba.

Claire Parsons Co. is an award-winning dance company creating clever and elegant performance art for children. Joyous movement and fanciful sightings of life around us make the performances unique to audiences worldwide.

“Marmalade is an exquisite dancing circus act, an experience embedded in the red tones that echo in the spatial balls and poufy skirts. Marmalade is a well-stirred, charming performance with many flavours all tasty for small and big spectators.” –  Svenska Dagbladet (SE)

“So good I almost fainted” Imre, 4 years old, Gefle Dagblad Sweden

“Fun and delicious. Marmalade sprinkles a starry street for dreams.” – Dagens Nyheter (SE)

Arts make life better

Norfolk & Norwich Festival brings tens of thousands of people together in celebration – it has been doing this for 250 years. Through our May Festival and our year-round arts education work, focusing on children and young people, we lead and support celebration, creativity and curiosity in communities across Norfolk and the region.

This year we begin an exciting new initiative, Festival Connect & Create that will bring creative opportunities to those schools and communities with least provision. Creativity transforms people’s lives. It builds cohesive communities, develops vital skills and supports health and wellbeing. We want more people to have access to creative opportunities.

Please consider donating to support and develop this work. With your help we can increase access to the life changing power of the arts.
