Doha: A unique theatrical experience, Cirque Le Noir, is on its way to Qatar. The sold-out world tour cirque will be performing in Doha for the first time ever this April.
“We are absolutely delighted to bring Cirque Le Noir to the region. It is an electrifying show for the whole family that has thrilled audiences all around the world. It is visually spectacular, breathtaking and it will definitely leave you mesmerized,” Tareq Abuissa, Chief Executive Officer, Tape Events, an event management company in the GCC, said .
Le Noir, the dark side of the cirque, features over 20 of the greatest acts on earth including spinning metal wheels, acrobatic stunts 30 ft. high, jaw-dropping spins on roller-skates and the Columbian Wheel of Death, performed in a 360-degree custom-built stage setting, bringing the audience closer to performers like never before.
The Colombian Wheel of Death is cited as one of the most complex circus stunts in the world; seeing two acrobats perform high-risk feats atop and inside a pair of spinning wheels rotating high above the stage.
World-class acrobats, musicians, specialty acts and comedians are the centerpiece of this cutting edge production.
“The performers comprise of award-winning athletes. Guided by impeccable spatial awareness, balance and stamina, each performer contributes to the unreal atmosphere as they glide through the air, swinging through a blur of hands and feet. Le Noir has been a sellout show in major cities such as Auckland, Christchurch, Sydney and Singapore,” adds Abuissa.
The production is surreal, beautiful and hilarious at times as it explores emotions through colors as the cast transform from beautiful and pure white, through the passion of red and finally culminating with the darkness of Le Noir.
The shows in Doha are scheduled for April 7, 8 and 9 and will be held at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre. (DECC)
