While Filippo Vivi performs sinuous choreographies on aerial silks, Carlos Rodrigo Parra Zavala masters the ancient art of the Chinese pole with strength and agility, and Vladimir Ježić’s golden-flags act pays homage to Vivaldi’s Griselda in an original lip-sync inspired by the steps of Sufi whirling dervishes. Then, Jonathan Lemos showcases an incredible juggling act with his white balls; the tightrope walker Emmanuel Caro gracefully balances on a thin wire, and Elena Andreasi introduces us to aerial hammock dance. All this while aerial acrobat Rachele Grassi performs solo with a hoop, and then in an elegant and acrobatic pas de deux with Emmanuel. These are some of the new acts performed by the talented artists of Cirko Vertigo, a renowned international training centre for circus arts for over 20 years.
