Circus Space Presents
THE CIRCUS SPACE CABARETThe Circus Space Cabaret offers our unique blend of funny, sensual, astounding and plain bizarre acts happening above and around you. From the sublime to the surreal, acts appearing include:
So & So Circus Theatre - Kaveh Rahnama and Lauren Hendry perform an acrobatic romance with dangerous and daring moves that will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. "Fast, daring leaps and lifts, performed with real attitude" The Stage
Rod Laver - World-record juggler and oral exhibitionist, Rod Laver's skills include playing classical music through the medium of ping-pong balls!
Steve Rawlings - "Hilarious and original, Steve Rawlings' mixture of desperation and downbeat humour steals the show. His balancing a tray of bottles and glasses on his chin while giving a running commentary on his difficulties is a classic piece of comic business.This is knife-edge humour which involves the audience in sympathy for a man flogging himself to death for a laugh, and yet knowing that he is perfectly capable of performing the daring and complicated routines he has set up.!" - THE STAGE.
"A brisk, skilful act that will get your heart in your throat and give you more bellylaughs than any comic - and that's a rare treat!" - THE SUNDAY TIMES.
The Barefoot Company - aerial artists Dela Seward & Martha Harrison are known for their innovative work on the low trapeze.
Natalie Reckert - an extraordinary handbalancer with a tightly choreographed routine.
So & So Circus Theatre, Natalie Reckert and The Barefoot Company are graduates of The Circus Space's Degree course in Circus Arts. The Circus Space is London's centre for the circus arts, supporting artists and companies to create and perform.
