Our Review
Updated
Our first impression of this team building activity is that it offers a refreshing twist on the traditional office outing by combining creativity with a social bar setting. Upstairs Circus provides an engaging platform where teams can explore their artistic sides through various DIY projects like leatherworking and jewelry making, all while enjoying craft cocktails. This setup is particularly appealing for creative teams looking to bond over shared artistic endeavors, as it allows for both individual expression and collaborative interaction.
One thing to keep in mind is that Upstairs Circus might be more suited for smaller groups or established teams who are comfortable engaging in hands-on activities together. Large groups might find it challenging to maintain cohesion in such an informal setting, and new teams could potentially struggle if they are not yet familiar with each other's working styles. Analytical teams may also need to adjust their expectations, as the focus here is more on creativity and social interaction rather than structured problem-solving. Overall, Upstairs Circus presents a unique opportunity for colleagues to connect outside the usual work environment, fostering communication and collaboration in a relaxed atmosphere.
