Last week, hubby and I were transported back to 1903, back to the days of decadence, grandeur, and romance when it was the Golden Age of Circus Acts. Musicals and theater performances aside, the Mastercard Theatre at Marina Bay Sands was transformed into a circus tent on stage.
CIRCUS 1903 - The Golden Age of Circus features death-defying high-wire acts, contortionists, bicycle wheel of death, knife throwers and much more daredevil entertainment. We were gripping tight to our seats as we watched the circus performers "rehearse" and "prepare" (in Act 1) for the grand circus show (in Act 2).
Act: Russia Cradle
Russian Cradle Performers - Marcella Collares de Queiroz Ribeir & Olavo Rocha Muniz.
The danger level was elevated because all these acts were performed within the tight restraint of the stage. Though there were safety mats, but I wouldn't want to imagine if there were any incidents. But not all acts were that heart bursting. Luckily, the Ringmaster (David Williamson) was there in between the acts for some comedic relief as while as interaction with the audience.
