Performs on the 15th of April at 8PM in Den Grå Hal, Refshalevej 2, 1436 København K. (CHILDREN FROM THE AGE OF 7)
Discover the next generation of innovative circus makers!
With youthful fearlessness, Jef and Marica wrestle the laws of the Cyr wheel. By insisting on the recognition of their distinctly different physicalities and personalities, they create an unprecedented antagonistic approach to the wheel. A battleground where one seeks balance while the other embraces the fall.
The result is a new vocabulary – a physical conversation filled with unexpected strategies, movements and devices. A new dawn for the discipline itself. And a wonderful performance!
IN DIFFERENCE is circusnext Laureate 2025.

BIOS:
Born in Belgium in 1999, Jef Everaert moved from juggling to a deep exploration of the Cyr wheel. Trained at FLIC (IT) and the CNAC (FR), he developed a distinctive, research-driven style and now creates personal work, including the duet In Difference.
Marica Marinoni, born in Milan in 1995, transitioned from competitive trampoline to circus arts, specializing in Cyr wheel at FLIC (IT) and later at CNAC (FR), where she graduated in 2020. She has performed with Compagnie Scom and Les Filles du Renard Pâle, co-created her solo Lontano with Juan Ignacio Tula and the duo In Difference with Jef Everaert. She teaches Cyr wheel in circus circus schools and won the Grand Prix at the 2024 Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain.
