Can Do Circus Company is a remarkable group of circus performers.

​

The youngest is 52 and the oldest is 77. 

​

One is a wheelchair user.

​

They began learning circus in April 2024 and meet every Sunday at Ware Drill Hall for training in aerial, ground-based skills and circus theatre.

​

We’re developing a unique show that will challenge what circus can BE and WHO can perform it.

​

Will You Still Love Me? takes real-life stories from the local community to shape the narrative of the show - we’re talking to residents from a nearby care home, getting local children’s perspectives on life, and inviting artists to make work on the subject of age and ageing.

​

The work will challenge societal stereotypes, explore themes of ageing and resilience, and highlight the often unheard voices of older generations.

​

Students from Herts Regional College are contributing too - they'll create animation and video projections that will form an integral part of the show’s visual storytelling.

​

This is more than a performance—it is a community-led initiative to inspire pride, foster connection, and create a lasting sense of ownership among all involved. 

​
