The joyful baby uprising during Be Kind was beyond anything else.
– Theaterkrant –
Be Kind is an intimate circus theatre experience for the very young and their parents/caregivers. It is a joyful introduction to the beauty of live performance.
A sensory performance of sound, colour and movement, children experience the magic of acrobatics up close as the performing duo bring their young audience through the rhythms of a day, from birdsong at dawn to juggling at dusk. The pop-up decor slowly comes to life as a heartwarming dialogue develops between performers and audience, shaping the story and making each performance unique.

Emilie Weisse Circustheater is a company founded in 2021 in the midst of the global pandemic.
The company has made its first steps with Be Kind, a baby circus theatre experience. This original performance based on scientific research, aims to emotionally reach babies, their parents/caregivers, and artists. The company doesn’t limit itself to one genre, one audience, one style. All doors are open to develop original concepts. Emilie Weisse as an artistic director wants to touch upon the subjects that truly matter to her as a woman, as a dancer and as a circus artist.
