Last Orders! - NICA

Overview

Step right up to the National Institute of Circus Arts, where this year’s graduates are giving new meaning to the term ‘dinner and a show.’ The fittingly-named Last Orders! will see NICA’s final year students embody the role of high-class Parisian waiters circa the early 1930s, in an evening of juggling, hula-hooping, clowning, acrobatics, trapeze, tumbling and more.

Starting Wednesday, June 11 and running through to the following Friday, the two-hour extravaganza will take place at NICA’s National Circus Theatre in Prahran, showcasing the talents of 16 up-and-coming performers who have literally run away to join the circus. A fully-stocked bar should help complete the illusion of a hoity-toity French cafe. And besides, once you see the kinds of physical feats these students are capable of, you’ll almost certainly feel the need for a stiff drink.
