STELLA POLARIS’ festgjøgleri er en tidløs gjøgler-forestilling full av poesi, energi og varme.

Tempoet er vilt og voldsomt. Musikken er heftig og medrivende. Akrobater, sjonglører, flammeblåsere, fakirer og styltedansere utfører sine kunster i en eksplosjon av farger og rytmer. For mange er et møte med STELLA POLARIS en opplevelse utenfor tid og grenser. STELLA POLARIS er farger, eksplosjon, energi, følelser og drømmer.

Vi er grenseløse, helbredende, multikulturelle og spirituelle. Vår verden er full av kjærlige og ville gjøglere, av fortapte og gale originaler.

I STELLA POLARIS festforestilling møter publikum fargerike masker, store dyrefigurer, flagg og stemningsfull bruk av ild – en vill og frodig forstilling der livet og gleden står i sentrum. Perfekt for alle anledninger der man ønsker å få en opplevelse ut over det vanlige!

Dette skrev det polske kulturtidsskriftet “Pogranicza” (nr 4, 2004) om paraden og Festgjøgleriet STELLA POLARIS gjorde under "FESTIVAL ARTYSTOW ULICY" i Szczecin i Juli 2004. STELLA POLARIS besøkte teaterfestivalen under sin turne i Polen juli 2004.

"…Then African drums appeared. The Audience, already excited by preceding events at once joined the dance. The Little Court was pulsating in the rhythm of stepping feet. And though they could not stop, they had to: no sooner did the musicians stop playing than a colorful jester parade, full of creatures like those in Bosch’s and Bruegel’s paintings emerged into the court singing and dancing. They took the audience onto an amazing journey along the streets of Szczecin’s Old Town, which in that instant transformed into a urban promenade pulsating with life energy.

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.

Then the procession, moved forward with even greater energy and together with the spectators, in number exceeding a thousand, formed a semicircle around the place of the show. The Stella Polaris actors performed a true dance of the elements, which culminated in a tempestuous ovation and a party. The greatest asset of this Norwegian group is their ability to built up the audience’s group energy consciously and consistently. Although some circus elements are brilliantly employed in their performance, it is not, however, a circus-like show aimed at making the audience cheer. Rather, it is a theater which “must put its soul into its art.” as Peter Schuman put it, to be able to lead the audience into such a state. Only then is it possible for people to believe and to celebrate this Huizingian, ludic and carnivalesque ritual together with the actors. Only then a true, beautiful encounter – like that in Szczecin – can happen."
