A thrilling new circus-cabaret extravaganza.
Welcome to the greatest party between heaven and hell.
LIMBO—the record-breaking, award-winning show finally makes its Melbourne debut. This intoxicating mix of cabaret, circus and acrobatics has seduced audiences worldwide with its celebration of otherworldy proportions.
Directed by Scott Maidment and presented in a magnificent 1920s inspired Spiegeltent, LIMBO whisks audiences into a sinister netherworld of gut-churning contortion, breath-taking acrobatics and jaw-dropping stunts.
The explosive LIMBO band is lead by Elyas Khan with Mick Stuart and Eamon McNelis. They are the driving force of the show, performing the original ecstatic melodies, irreverent electric-acoustic noise and playful, sexy beats of New York composer Sxip Shirey.
LIMBO’s stunning international cast also features: Coney Island’s sword swallower, Heather Holliday; French gravity-defying Chinese pole master, Mikael Bres; Australia’s dancing sensation Hilton Denis; the exquisite French-Canadian aerialist, Evelyne Allard; the unstoppable hand balancer Danik Abishev; and German mind-bending contortionist, Tigris.
Sold out London, Edinburgh, Sydney, Bogota, Auckland, Adelaide and Munich. Don’t miss your chance to see the show so hot, Madonna came twice.
