"il Piccolo Circo del Sole" circus school arises from an
idea of Ambra Orfei and has its starting point in experiences already
tested in other European and U.S. cities.
This project is very interesting because it means to approach the public
to a strange and charming reality of the circus, with a careful attention
to children and young Milanese people.
Orfei family, who feels very enthusiastic about this project, will follow
it personally, teaching the different disciplines directly to
the children,
supported by qualified circus trainers.
The school will take place inside
a mobile facility (located in a proper area inside Idroscalo park); this
facility will represent an important point of reference for Milanese
community about sports and shows.
It’s well-known how long children
stay watching TV and playing video games, because they haven’t
any good and stimulating options to amuse themselves.
That’s why Ambra Orfei means to create a meeting point between
circus culture and young Milanese people, merging them to a
sport discipline that also offers a correct way of life, leaded by circus artists since
ever.
Helped by creating a structured area, they can teach stage about
circus art and its branches.
