Nuua Company
Helsinki, Uusimaa
Nuua Company is a contemporary circus and visual theatre group based in Helsinki. Nuua has made a name for itself on the domestic and international scene with its unique style.
During its more than ten-year history, Nuua has been selected for the Circus Next programme, and the group's award-winning works have been mentioned in the literature of the field and received rave reviews from the media. The works have toured in 21 countries.
Nuua Company has developed a direction in which circus is understood as an element that brings together different performing arts and forms. Nuua renews juggling as object theatre, connecting the movements of the body and objects as concepts, and explores the theatrical expressiveness of circus skills.
Depending on the viewer's personal experiences, our multi-layered performances open up differently for everyone. We awaken emotions and feed the imagination, sensitising the viewer to a state where experience takes precedence over narrative and the viewer becomes more receptive to new dreamlike experiences.
Customer references
Nuua produces performances in collaboration with theatres, circus groups and residency centres. This provides the keys to international visibility and an exchange of ideas between circus artists that enriches the art form. In Finland, performances and collaborations have been carried out with, among others, Tanssitalo, Kuopio City Theatre, Cirko – Centre for New Circus, Järvenpää House and Oulu Flow Productions.
Nuua is expanding its repertoire with works that can be performed outside the theatre in order to reach new audiences and make it possible to experience art in places where people do not normally encounter contemporary circus.
