Australian circus spectacular makes GrandWest first stop
AUSSIE: The Australian Circus Spectacular will be touring South Africa in 2016, and make its first stop at GrandWest's Grand Arena from 12-14 February 2016. This is the first time the talented performers will entertain a foreign audience.
AUSSIE: The Australian Circus Spectacular is a modern and exclusively human, feel good circus that blends cirque style acrobatics, vaudevillian antics and extreme, high octane stunts. The executive producer of the show is Cape Town-born Sebastian Cassie who returns to the mother city for the first time in 2016 since he was a young boy.
Unbelievable achievements
This is the first time that AUSSIE - The Australian Circus Spectacular has visited foreign soil, and it promises to leave audiences in awe with the cast performing unbelievable achievements. Highlights of the show include one of the world's few surviving human cannonball acts performed by an expert stuntman, Luiz Daza, who has literally flown over audiences seven days a week during the sell-out run of the Great Euro Circus in Australia.
Audiences will also marvel at the Globe of Death act which features up to five motorbike riders circling a daring dancer with Mad Max style bravado before the sphere splits in half, and thrilling freestyle motor cross stunts during which riders reach unbelievable heights.
Death-defying stunts
Between these breath taking and death-defying stunts, a troupe of talented and equally daring AUSSIES will perform amazing feats of human endurance, skill and strength. From the Queen of the Silks, Kiarnna; vaudevillian performer and slapstick comedian, Val De Fun, the illusion of the salsa-dancing quick-change act, to the duo pole performance by Edison and Giselle, audiences will be fascinated from start to finish.
"AUSSIE: The Australian Circus Spectacular is world-class family entertainment that will have South Africans on the edge of their seats," says Elouise Matthys, PR and promotions manager at GrandWest.
AUSSIE: The Australian Circus Spectacular, produced by the same company responsible for the acclaimed Great Moscow Circus and Great Euro Circus, will tour South Africa exciting audiences at Sun International venues across the country until late May 2016.
Tickets are now on sale at Computicket. Tickets for the show at GrandWest range in price from R250 per person.
