Celebrated Finnish circus company Nuua brings its latest jaw-dropping performance to The Lowry this October.

Blueberry Burdock is a surreal journey through what it means to be human, told through the acclaimed company’s unique form of contemporary circus.

Overwhelmed by too many options in life, the production’s lead character finds inner conflicts and internal contradictions spill out into the space around him, as he constructs a room full of manifested confusions, including moving walls and strange objects.

In this bizarre fragmented reality, the human experience is represented by endless puzzles and perplexing signposts, that become more comical as Blueberry Burdock navigates this world through absorbing visual theatre, using objects to create a depiction of the complexities of life.

In this funny and touching performance, the audience are immersed in the journey, invited to examine their own lives and to embrace the absurd, the confusing, and the beautiful moments of daily human existence.

Blueberry Burdock comes to The Lowry Thu 3 Oct. Tickets are on sale now, grab yours using the button below.
