Cirque Du Ciel - Reviews


Patrick Gough,Bournemouth Echo at Bournemouth
"Superb, stupendous, breathtaking - there are not enough adjectives to describe this magnificent entertainment...with magnificent costumes, set and lighting, this stunning production showcases the skills of world-class performers."


Broadway World at Wimbledon
"The Cirque formula keeps the pace high with the music driving the show forward and no breaks in the high jinks for animal acts or clowns. The end product sits somewhere between showbusiness and sport, circus and sensation, tradition and the twenty-first century leaving  the audience to emerge thrilled and blinking into the night exhausted just by watching."

Public Reviews at Bradford
"Direction makes the show sharp and crisp, so that one remarkable thing overlaps another. As diablos, hats and acrobats go flying through the air with incredibly precise timing, you sometimes can’t believe what you are seeing. You would need a slow motion replay to fully appreciate some of the amazing action... The show is a two hour, heart-warming display of youthful agility, daring, skill, showmanship and strength. You almost don’t get enough chance to clap, as the action moves slickly from one amazing feat to another... for a show that is pure entertainment, simply memorable."

Ian Cain, Public Reviews at Billingham

"Suffice to say that you will be truly astounded by what is, according to the publicity material – and also in my opinion – ‘the most daring, breathtaking and stunning family entertainment of the year’. Prepare to be amazed, prepare to be stunned, prepare to be enthralled – but, most of all, prepare to be entertained. ‘Cirque du Ciel: Shanghai’ is a show that shines and sparkles as brightly as the glitzy costumes that adorn the acrobats. There are no words that can adequately convey the brilliance of this Far-Eastern phenomenon . . . go see for yourself!"
