CIRCUS MONOXIDE TROUPE

EMERGE AND CIRCUS MONOXIDE TROUPE

Empowering the next generation of circus artists. The Circus Monoxide Troupe is the heart of our youth performance program - a vibrant and dynamic community where young performers are given the opportunity to develop their circus skills, stage presence, and confidence through high-level training and real-world performance experiences. Our program is designed to nurture passionate and committed students who are ready to take their circus journey to the next level. With access to specialised coaching across a broad range of circus disciplines, troupe members refine their technique, creativity, and stagecraft in a supportive, inclusive environment. Better yet, Circus Monoxide Troupe is more than just training. It’s about fostering personal growth, resilience, and a strong sense of community. Students build lasting friendships, learn the value of teamwork, and discover their own voices as artists and collaborators. They’re encouraged to contribute beyond the stage through volunteering, assisting in younger classes, and participating in fundraising activities that support both their own development and that of the broader circus community. Many troupe members go on to become trainers, performers, and leaders within the Circus Monoxide family and beyond - continuing the cycle of mentorship and inspiration for future generations. With clear pathways to advanced training, industry exposure, and performance opportunities both locally and nationally, the Troupe is a launchpad for those looking to pursue circus professionally or simply deepen their passion in a meaningful way. Embracing the concepts of self-expression and connection, Circus Monoxide Troupe offers a transformative experience that builds not just circus performers - but confident, creative, and capable individuals.

JOIN OUR TROUPE

Ready to perform. Ready to grow. Ready to fly.

The Circus Monoxide Troupe is an inclusive performance pathway for young artists who want to develop strong circus skills, confidence, and real stage experience.

Performers begin in Emerge, where they build solid foundations in technique, creativity, and ensemble work. As skills and confidence grow, students may audition for Performance Troupe, progressing into more advanced training and performance opportunities.

Circus Monoxide Troupe members perform in mid-year and end-of-year Circus Monoxide productions, as well as selected special events. The program supports genuine pathways into the circus industry, with alumni continuing their training at NICA and circus schools across Australia and internationally.

As a community-run organisation, Circus Monoxide relies on collaboration. Students and families contribute through backstage roles, front-of-house support, and fundraising, helping to sustain a vibrant and inclusive circus community.
