Abstract

The artistic direction of the First Chicago Contemporary Circus Festival (January 2014) was unabashedly contemporary with a clear nod to Quebec's circus practices. Charles Batson (Union College), Zita Nyarady (York University), CarlosAlexis Cruz (UNC-Charlotte), and Roy Gomez-Cruz (Northwestern University) offer their responses to the three Quebec productions programmed in the festival, and to Ricochet, an American company which seemed to share some of the codes and artistic sensibility of young Quebec companies while charting its own course.
