Overview
Saltimbanco, from the Italian 'saltare in banco' (which literally means to jump on a bench), is a thrilling, kaleidoscopic celebration of awe-inspiring artistry and agility.
Originally directed by Franco Dragone, the show features an international cast of over 50 performers and musicians from more than 20 different countries.
Set inside an imaginary metropolis of colourful inhabitants, Saltimbanco features breathtaking acrobatics and unbelievable athleticism during solo spotlights and epic ensembles. Decidedly baroque in its visual vocabulary, the show's eclectic cast of characters draws spectators into a fanciful, dreamlike world, an imaginary city where diversity is a cause for hope. Technical expertise and extravagant design are woven together with spectacular costumes, amazing lighting, humour, and enchanting live music. Overflowing with colour, amusement and amazement, Saltimbanco is a fun show for the whole family to enjoy.
It's always an exciting time when the circus comes to town.
