Circus Extreme has arrived in Ireland as part of its world tour and they are thrilled to invite you along to a show that promises breathtaking non-stop action.
It’s a one-of-a-kind performance, that has been five years in the making, and features some of the most talented performers in the world.
Belfast was specifically chosen as a location for Circus Extreme due to its diverse cultural background, with performances being held at Boucher Road until November 10.
Ireland is a major centre of the creative industries, so where better to celebrate the vibrant, artistic and awe-inspiring nature of the circus.
Merging modern and contemporary styles with extreme stunts and classic clown escapades, audiences will be amazed by the jam-packed Circus Extreme production which features show-stopping performances that will have you on the edge of your seat.
Acts include the Ayala Troupe, who will be performing their award winning high wire act which has never been seen before in the UK. Having performed all over the world, they most recently showcased in the world famous Monte Carlo Circus Festival.
Just back from its European tour, the EXTREME® freestyle motocross team will be bringing you its jaw-dropping stunts to the Big Top as their pilots fly through the air displaying cliff-hanger stunts such as the Superman and nac nac to name a few. Battling for air space, resident riders are sure to get the adrenaline pumping as they defy gravity with incredible mid-air backflips.
The EXTREME® stunt riding team will also be performing the Globe of Death, the most death-defying act ever demonstrated. This incredible stunt will put the performers under G-force similar to that of a fighter pilot. Watch as they loop vertically and horizontally, all while encased in a mesh sphere. This really is one for the petrolheads.
Direct from Ukraine walking the slack wire is Tetiana Kundyk, fresh from various Golden Buzzer performances including a mind blowing display on the World Famous Super Talent show, proud to be showcasing her incredible balancing skills all performed in a distinctive style for this new production.
World famous Henry the Prince of Clowns, a celebrated figure in the circus, will be keeping the audience amused throughout the show.
Circus legend Laura Miller will be showcasing her internationally-renowned aquatic aerial ring which unites the elements of fire, water and air. Witness the aerial hoop skills combining grace, beauty, visually stunning lights and music that will transport viewers into a sci-fi world.
