Kansas City Sees Incredible Acrobatics

Saltimbanco may be one of Cirque Du Soleil’s oldest shows, but that does not mean it has lost its ability to captivate audiences.  Kansas City is the latest city to welcome the show and give it yet another rave review.  Saltimbanco combines some of the greatest parts of traditional circus and adds in incredible acrobatics.  It may have even more of the traditional circus feel than other Cirque Du Soleil shows because of this show’s age.

The show’s acrobatic coach, Michael Ocampo, knows that the draw of the show has much to do with the acrobatic talent of the performers.  To keep the wow factor, the show has recruited some of the top acrobats around.  Ocampo said, “All of them come from a high level of sports. Some have been world champions or in huge competitions, the Olympics. They also have many years of expertise, anywhere from six to 20 years.”

The experience shows as Saltimbanco gives audience incredible feats of acrobatics. Ocampo, as well as the many audience members who have seen the show, appreciates the unique qualities of this show and how it has modernized the circus.  To see this or other Cirque shows, get your Cirque Du Soleil tickets from StubHub.com.
