Assume People Like You

Set against the backdrop of a French night club, this strange and charming circus performance recreates a by-gone era and asks an age old question - How do you make friends?

Melon the Human brings his bold and vibrant charm to challenge the struggle of modern connection. Wrapped in circus skills that have taken him from Cirque du Soleil to Scotland. This sweet and quirky confection of circus, sincerity and absurdity will leave you wishing you'd bought some spare change!

Presented by: Melon the Human and Cluster Arts

MELON THE HUMAN
Far more skilled at circus than he appears and accompanied with dry, awkward wit. Specialising in object manipulation, Melon has left global audiences stunned with his juggling finesse of unique objects including the broom and cube, and has toured with Circus Rio and Cirque Du Soleil.
