ROOKE is a contemporary circus company, based in Northern lutruwita/Tasmania. We create cutting-edge circus work to engage, inspire, transport, and uplift local audiences. Every ROOKE performance feels like a party, every attendee is invited to come back, again and again. Every ROOKE experience will change your mind about circus.
ROOKE was founded by five world-class circus artists with a combined performance experience of over 120 years. ROOKE was created to make high-quality and sustainable circus; we want to travel better, raise families, and grow local roots.
ROOKE engages with and grows community in lutruwita/Tasmania.
