The international, interdisciplinary research project Circus and its Others presents its fourth edition. The fourth international conference on Circus and its Others will take place in Bogotá, Colombia, from 28 February to 3 March. It will be co-organised by Charles R. Batson (Union College), Karen Fricker (Brock University) and Olga Lucia Sorzano (Artemotion, Colombia, University College Dublin, Ireland). And the Achura Karpa festival is produced by the core conference team. Circus and its Others aims to explore the ways in which contemporary circus artists and companies engage with concepts of difference, otherness and alterity in their practice. What are the contemporary challenges facing the field, and what characterises the community of people who have dedicated themselves to circus research? And how has this research evolved over the past ten years? A few days before the start of the conference in Bogotá, I spoke to Charles R. Batson, Karen Fricker and Olga Lucia Sorzano about their current perceptions of the project. Today you are listening to the Cirqueon Circus Podcast with Veronika Jošková Štefanová.
