13-29 Nicolson Street, Edinburgh EH8 9FT
Duck Pond lands at Festival Theatre in Edinburgh on Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October 2026. Circa’s playful take on Swan Lake mixes circus, dance, and comedy in a family-friendly stage show with a knowingly offbeat twist.
Feathers, acrobatics, and cheeky humour all feature in this reimagined version of a ballet classic.
