Australian circus spectacular for Durban

SUN International has teamed up with the makers of the acclaimed Great Moscow Circus and Great Euro Circus to bring AUSSIE: The Australian Circus Spectacular to South Africa, with the talented, daring and slightly insane performers set to dazzle and amaze audiences in Durban at Crawford College (La Lucia, Durban) from 17 March to 3 April.

This is the first time that AUSSIE has visited foreign soil in its international tour, and it promises to leave audiences in awe with the cast performing unbelievable feats. Highlights of the show include one of the world’s few surviving human cannonball acts that is performed by an expert stuntman Luiz Daza who has literally flown over audiences seven days a week during the sellout run of the Great Euro Circus in Australia.

Audiences will also marvel at the dizzying 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 gut wrenching heights beneath the circus Big Top.

Between these breathtaking 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 mesmerised from start to finish.

Tickets are on sale at Computicket and start from R150 per person.
