The show also stars Cyr Wheel virtuoso Bogdan, roller-skating duo Diana and Maksim, Andrei Pogorelov’s daring Wheel of Death, violinist-singer Evgeniia, the lightning-fast Quick Change duo Tom & Jenny, and Emiliano Sanchez’s mesmerising horizontal juggling and the electrifying aerialists Duo Liberty, each bringing their own flair to this mesmerising spectacle.

Nimble, acrobatic and filled with high energy, the troupe at the Gala Night delivered an amazing performance lasting 2 and half hours of aerial displays and heart-stopping stunts, all seamlessly interwoven with music and lights to leave the audience enthralled from start to end.
