Women's Circus
Adrienne Liebmann, Jen Jordan, Deb Lewis, Louise Radcliffe-Smith, Patricia Sykes & Jean Taylor (eds.)

Have you ever wanted to join the circus? Wondered what goes on behind the scenes? What trapeze artists think about as they swing through the air? Reading this book lets you become an armchair acrobat. Established in 1991 as a community theatre project to work with survivors of sexual assault, the Women’s Circus has gone on to create innovative shows, toured to China in 1995 and has maintained a training program for women of all shapes and sizes, backgrounds, ages and abilities for fifteen years.

This is a big, rowdy, colourful, three-ring circus of a book, packed with death-defying feats and acts that will thrill and amaze – not the least of which is their breathtaking commitment to feminist practice.'

Carolyn Gage, Lesbian Review of Books

'This book is a documentary of the best kind: fulfilling and complete.'
