Brain Fools Performance by Jacksons Lane
About the Creation
The internationally acclaimed Brain Fools arrived at the Haringey Feast fresh from the Edinburgh Festival!
Their promenade circus performance combined acrobatics, juggling, puppets and live music. Guests at the Haringey Feast had the incredible chance to close-up circus like never before.

About the Artist
Brainfools does what it says on the tin. Gravity-defying. Exhilarating. With a sprinkle of comedy (of course).
They are a group of incredibly talented performers passionately strutting our stuff — on the ground, mid-air, and oh, tugging at heartstrings with delightful spectacles of ‘brain foolery.’
A brainchild of Finn and Toffy, Brain Fools are a contemporary, socio-aware group of performers/producers who fuse circus arts with collaborative imagination to create versatile, fully immersive, and visually enriching performance arts experiences for the world’s audiences.

They run a Youth Circus which involves free, professionally led circus workshops across the borough for young people aged 4-18. At Jacksons Lane Youth Circus, everyone laughs and supports each other to keep going, whether it’s through stilt-walking or plate-spinning, centre stage or behind the scenes, something magical always happens through the art of circus!
