Well all I can say is WOW! What a show! Cirque Eloize stormed into Milton Keynes last night with breathtaking tricks, incredible stunts and some fantastic break dancing and hip hop.
The whole show took place on a city street with scaffolding and back projection that really added to the atmosphere. The highly talented cast performed, among other tricks, arial stunts, straps, juggling, pole, cyr wheel, trampoline and some fabulous trail bike stunts that involved the bike jumping over people and even jumping on and off the stage!
It was really spectacular. There was an interesting Q & A after the show with several members of the cast who talked about their training and the work needed to keep their physical fitness at its peak.
The audience thoroughly enjoyed the whole evening and, from not really knowing exactly what to expect, my breath was well and truly taken away by some of the superb tricks.
For anyone who ever went to the circus as a child and enjoyed the acrobats, this five star show is a must see!
It has played Milton Keynes last Saturday 11th October and is moving on to the Alhambra Theatre Bradford on Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th October and finishes its tour on Friday17th and Saturday 18th October.
