An acrobatic celebration to the rhythm of music
-The show that thrilled the world-
In an elegant Cotton Club-style lounge bar, following the whims of an extravagant vintage radio, playing rhythm ‘n’ blues music, the barman and the whole staff transform into performers doing balancing acts, waving flags, jumping and acrobatics with fire. Every object (chairs, tables, hangers, vases and even mirrors) becomes a tool for breath-taking acrobatics and the constant involvement of the audience.
A party full of dazzling moments set to the sweeping sounds of the soundtrack to the cult movie The Blues Brothers. You will see human pyramids, limbo with fire, rope and hoop jumping, hilarious gags, funny stripteases, amusing dance challenges and much more. This is a dynamic show for everyone.
Conceived by Alexander Sunny (a producer of successful shows and TV specials like Cirque du Soleil), The Black Blues Brothers has established itself as a must-see international show, with numerous sold-out performances, standing ovations, and four- and five-star reviews in a world tour of more than 900 dates and 600,000 spectators, including Pope Francis, who personally congratulated them, Prince Albert and Princess Stéphanie of Monaco and the British Royal Family, who they performed for during the Royal Variety Performance, introduced by King Charles III, who praised the tremendous talent of the artists.
The show was showcased twice to great acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where it was chosen as the best physical theatre show by Theatre Weekly magazine. At the Adelaide Fringe Festival, it was named best acrobatic show by The Advertiser newspaper.
The tremendous success earned the acrobats an invitation to the world’s leading circus event, the Monte Carlo International Circus Festival, where they received two special prizes, and to the Moulin Rouge, the historical temple of live entertainment.
