The world-renowned circus’ last visit to the country was 12 years ago when they performed at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.
The greatest show on Earth—or perhaps, something like it—finally comes alive again in the Philippines, as Super American Circus. It stages its two-hour shows at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasig City, from December 21, 2022, to January 8, 2023.
No, you won’t be seeing P.T. Barnum in the flesh. Instead, it’s Cornell ‘Tuffy’ Nicholas, leading the most spectacular circus, which may be the finest of its kind you will ever see.
At its grand media conference held last week, Global Entertainment Productions promised stellar performances that would not fall short of an awe-inspiring and jaw-dropping marvel, with the Super American Circus delivering its globally acclaimed one-ring circus shows. Tuffy Nicholas, who is the son of the world-famous American ringmaster, Angelo Nicholas a.k.a. Count Nicholas, leads a pack of fabulous performers, who hail from different parts of the world.
Nicholas recalled his humble beginnings during a press conference. From the time he became an honorary ringmaster at age 8, the youngest during his time, to the first time he tagged along with his parents as they toured America to serve the country with no less than breathtaking acrobatic grandeur, the seasoned American producer and circus ringmaster honed his skills like a fine wine that got better with age.
In his upcoming shows, Filipino spectators can expect to be blown away by the sheer magic of physics-defying acrobatics. He promised, “Witness thrilling acts like the motorcycle team in the Globe of Danger, the amazing Sky Wheel, the High Flying Motorcycle, life-challenging aerialists, beautiful aerial ballerinas, and amazing jugglers that will happily keep you hanging on the edge of your seats.”
