The Revel Puck Circus is a not-for-profit company, who create fresh circus for a new audience. We are a young and dynamic company who are striving to do and to see circus differently. Founded through a Make it Happen grant from Waltham Forest, London Borough of Culture 2019, and based in Newham, Revel Pucks are deeply rooted in East London.

 

Through the past five years in East London Revel Pucks have developed five major productions, delivered over 100 placements for creative young people through shadowing, mentoring and paid work experience and created over 150 jobs within the creative industries.

 

Our work is based on the principle that to create work of universal appeal does not mean a sacrifice of artistic integrity or dramaturgical depth. It is possible to make work that is both poignant and joyful, that can resonate deeply whilst bringing joy and laughter to the faces of all.

​

We are incredibly passionate about ensuring that what we do is of real benefit to local communities. From our creative output of exceptional circus that is accessible to people of all ages from all backgrounds to our community engagement programmes.

​

Our mission is to revolutionise our sector and to redefine public perception of circus. Our big top is our home and with it we land in the heart of communities far and wide, inviting them into our world and having the privilege to be a part of theirs.

Collaboration and community are the heart of what we do, from decision-making, getting creative and performing. We hold individuals' voices with respect and diligence. The diversity of the voices in our company and collaborative approach is what makes us, us.

​

We work in partnership with local authorities, private developers, and regional theatres to bring our fully autonomous venue to sites and spaces outside of traditional performance settings to activate an area and community through vibrant live performances and local partnerships.

​​

We make circus. For everyone, from everywhere.
