Britain’s biggest and boldest theatre-circus spectacular Cirque Berserk!, is now at Riverside Studios in Hammersmith London for five weeks from 9th February to 11th March, 2023.
It’s a show that is full of suspense, razzle, dazzle, comedy, thrills and chills by a cast that seems to be dozens. Cirque Beserk! combines all of this and more in a show that is guaranteed to entertain you, whether you are a child or a grandparent – it’s a must for every and all family members.
Following sold-out seasons in the West End and at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Cirque Berserk! celebrates its tenth anniversary with this five-week season at the Riverside Studios.
Presented by Zippos, Britain’s biggest and boldest theatre-circus spectacular showcases the finest in traditional circus thrills and skills, bringing this treasured form of live entertainment bang up-to-date in a jaw-dropping show created especially for the stage. Combining contemporary cirque-style artistry with adrenaline-fuelled stunt action, this astoundingly talented international troupe includes over thirty fearless acrobats, aerialists, and daredevil stuntmen whose act is truly breathless!
With up to 3 shows daily, Cirque Berserk! is the perfect evening out for you and your friends or daytime shows perfect for the young ones! The children at the press show we attended were in awe of what they were watching on stage, and their parents too!
One of the highlights of the show is the act that is ‘Globe of Death;’ (photo below). They are three motorcyclists who defy gravity and risk life and limb traversing the inside of a spherical steel cage at increased speeds of up to 80 miles per hour. It’s heart stopping!
They are joined by a magnificent company of over 30 jugglers, acrobats, aerialists, dancers and daredevil stuntmen from all corners of the globe, including, The Mongal Hoard – a multi-talented troupe from Mongolia plus, and brilliant physical-comedy star (and Brazilian capoeira champion!), 3ft 6in (107cm) Paulo Dos Santos!
This is what you’ll get so see:
Many other acts are in this show in which the The Sun newspaper declares ‘‘Great for kids and even better for adults!’
