Cristal Palace
Friday 5 June from 7:30pm to 8:40pm Saturday 6 June from 7:30pm to 8:40pm Sunday 7 June from 7:30pm to 8:40pm
An open-air extravaganza of aerial acrobatics, dance and unbelievable circus feats arrives to the Sydney Opera House Forecourt direct from France. Free for all and perfect for families, Cristal Palace dazzles with three shows on the June long weekend.
Across 70 minutes of pure spectacle, Cristal Palace reimagines the Forecourt as a baroque ballroom, complete with a gigantic chandelier overhanging the stage – and home to airborne wind orchestra.
With a talented ensemble of 29 performers, you’ll be dazzled by aerial trapeze and silk artists, hoop acts, clowning, plus talented dancers travelling through 150 years of music and dance. As Cristal Palace time-travels, they’ll take us from the waltz and polka through to rock’n’roll and techno – and invite you to join in for a boogie, too.
Created by acclaimed French outdoor theatre company Transe Express, Cristal Palace makes its Australian debut after mesmerising audiences across Europe and the UK.
