\n\nThe performance of HUNG Tung's Fantasy by Thunar Circus on occasion of the 2018 Grand Opening of the Weiwuying Circus Platform drew enthusiastic responses from the audience. A theater version which is still deeply inspired by works of the self-taught Taiwanese painter HUNG Tung will be introduced in 2020. This version was jointly created by Billy CHANG, a member of the Cirque du Soleil, the puppetry goddess HSUEH Mei-hua, and dramaturg and circus expert CHOW Ling-chih with the director of Thunar Circus LIN Cheng-tsung.. This joint project which includes the whole process from fabric weaving to the design of hoops and trapeze devices aims to create a brand-new circus experience infused with childlike imagination.

Thunar Circus
\n\nThunar Circus is a contemporary circus creation group based in Taiwan, taking an artistic and poetic approach to the performances. We hope to carry forward the spirit of contemporary circus, develop the creativity of performers, and provide continuously original and thoughtful circus productions for the national & international stage.
\n\n“Thunar” is an unlimited free space, in which we experiment and explore the contemporary circus art in these multiple faces. “Thunar” is an unlimited life, in which all of our actions are connected with the culture that we belong to and aim to represent the humanity through acrobatics. “Thunar” is also a collective space, in which, by sharing the artistic creations of the contemporary circus, artists and audiences link together and reflect on the society that we’re experiencing.
\n\nCollaborating with artists from different fields, Thunar Circus explores diverse styles and performing languages for the contemporary circus and pursues divergent ways of seeing.
