Circus Center Presents
The Supers
A Science-Fiction Human Cartoon
February 19 - 29, 2020
Directed by Colin Johnson
From the imagination of Sara Moore (Show Ho, Atomic Clown, Wunderworld) comes her latest groundbreaking creation, a “human cartoon opera” about the extraordinary power of everyday heroes. The Supers tells the story of cosmic refugees, fleeing across galaxies to the hopeful safety of our Earth. Once here, though, they find themselves confronted by a multitude of authoritarian forces. Eventually, they discover an astonishing secret – one that holds the key to healing a broken universe.
For many years, Moore has been a pioneer in redefining American clowning as a storytelling force for a new era, and The Supers is their most ambitious production to date. The story is told entirely in pantomime, with a lush symphonic score by celebrated Bay Area composer Rob Reich (Circus Bella All-Star Band), directed by rising star Colin Johnson (Awesome Theatre).
