Circus and Nostalgia at Antigua Morería
On 22 August at 20:00, the Valencian company La Trócola brings its show Juga to Antigua Morería in Sagunto, a street circus performance combining acrobatics, juggling, and theatre to revive games from before the 1990s. Aimed at families, the show invites children and adults to join in activities that celebrate traditional play—from hopscotch to bottle caps, spinning tops, and skipping ropes.
With three decades of experience, the company uses humour and audience interaction to create a festive and educational atmosphere. More than just a performance, it’s an intergenerational gathering where grandparents can teach younger ones how to play without screens, while acrobatics and juggling add a circus twist.
