Book NowAbout the show
Delusional – I Killed a Man is a contemporary circus solo show performed by Diana Salles, presented by Quartier Libre Productions, at the Main Hall as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The show embarks on a trans woman's journey, exploring the haunting feeling of having murdered one's former self — a common experience for many trans people when leaving their assigned gender behind. Through aerials, dance, singing and physical theatre, Salles invites audiences to reflect on the physical and emotional strength it takes to honour one's truth. Aerial silks, beautiful images and mesmerising music come together in what is described as a heart-stopping exploration of self-discovery. Suitable for ages 12 and over. Contains distressing or potentially triggering themes and strobe lighting.
Why see this show?
A multidisciplinary circus show that uses aerial silks, dance and live music to tell a deeply personal story of identity and transformation. Diana Salles brings genuine physical and emotional power to the stage.
