Eisemann Center Presents: 2025-2026 Season

DRUM TAO was stablished in 1993 with the dream of creating a world-class production centered around “Wadaiko” (Japanese Drums), a instrument which has a very rare and unique variety of sound expressions. They set their base at Oita, Japan and started creating their own music, stage set-ups, and costumes to produce their one-of-a-kind entertainment. Many talented artists and staff gathered to join this creation from all over the world.

More than 9 million spectators have been reached worldwide. DRUM TAO’s stage is created through phenomenal performances and expressions consisting of incomparable “Wadaiko-drums” and the beautiful melody of Japanese flutes and harps. It is the “Japanese Entertainment” for a new generation that completely surpasses expectations.

“Humans 2.0 is a seriously sensational spectacle: as aesthetic as it is athletic, as comedic as it is grave, and all in all, a visceral delight.” – The Conversation

A symphony of acrobatics, sound and light, this is next level circus by Circa.

Ten bodies appear in a flash of light. They move in harmony for a fleeting moment and then descend into a sinuous trance. Towers grow and decay, bodies leap and are caught, as physical limits are pushed to their extreme. Can we ever find a perfect balance or is adapting to constant change the only way forward?

This next chapter of Circa’s internationally acclaimed Humans is a tightly woven choreography of bodies, pulsing with music by composer Ori Lichtik and revealed in Paul Jackson’s dramatic lighting. Created by circus visionary Yaron Lifschitz, Humans 2.0 is intimate, primal and deeply engaged with the challenge of being human.

Circa acknowledges the assistance of the Australian Government through Creative Australia, its principal arts investment and advisory body and the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland. 

Humans 2.0 is commissioned by The Mondavi Center, UC Davis
