Celebration of Life

Attention: open in a new window. PrintE-mail

Stella Polaris’ Celebration of Life is a performance beyond time, place and language. It’s the Feast of Fools, the Banquet of Buffoons, and the Carnival of Creatures – all in one! 
The pace will take your breath away, and the intense music will make you want to join the dance. Acrobats, jugglers, fire eaters, fakirs and dancers on stilts perform in an explosion of colours and rythms. 
Colourful masks, mythical creatures, flags and fire – all put together in a vibrant and vigorous celebration of life. 
This is the performance that turns any occasion into something special!

This vibrant procession, which had not even for an instant slowed down its dynamic movement, inspired by the rhythmic sound of the drum and the sounds of accordion and trumpet, dancing jugglers, jumping acrobats, fire eaters and finally by a firework show became – I am not afraid to use this word – almost mystical for its partakers. From every nook and cranny, from each small courtyard, from behind each door vigilant spirits of the town watched them. It was to them as well as to some older people who gathered on balconies, and, who – I am not afraid to say it – had tears in their eyes that their beautiful and sad song, chanted almost voicelessly was dedicated to.
