From balancing ballerinas to music made with rubbish bins, London really does have it all when it comes to entertainment. It’s often difficult to know where to look or what to look for, so we’ve selected a handful of spectacular performances that are guaranteed to blow you away.
1. Moscow State Circus
[Moscow State Circus]The world famous circus is returning to the UK with its biggest and best performance yet. Their newest show is based on Russian folklore and tells the story of “the flower with seven colours” — where each of the petals represents a wish. It follows a magical journey to fulfilment and will feature some breathtaking acts, including a ballerina on a high wire and a 13-person springboard troupe. Buy your tickets here.
[The Last Tango]In a deeply moving performance, Strictly Come Dancing superstars, Vincent Simone and Flavia Cacace, will be dancing their very last tango. (Well, probably not, but it’s the last time they’ll be performing in London). Their previous shows totally sold out, and this one is set to do the same. It’s in London for 10 weeks only, starting September 22, so grab your tickets now before they disappear! Buy your tickets here.
