Barbaren Barbies – Varieté

A variety show like no other. In true “Barbarian Barbie” style, these radically ridiculous superheroines amaze audiences with their acrobatic circus skills and their wild sense of humor. With their love of slipping into a wide variety of characters, they bluntly and playfully poke fun at clichés and make their audience laugh. A refreshing contemporary circus with delightfully shocking silliness.

The Barbarian Barbies, hailing from Germany, New Zealand, Canada, Finland, and France, are an international circus collective based in Berlin. They have been touring Germany and beyond since March 2022, and performed to great acclaim at the Edinburgh FRINGE Festival in August 2024.
