Filipino families and circus fans are in for a treat this holiday season as the world-famous Super American Circus is set to hold a two-hour show featuring an incredible array of performers.The show's ringmaster, Global Entertainment Productions President and CEO Cornell 'Tuffy' Nicholas was invited by Philippine producers Johanan Soyangco and Edwin Chiong to bring in his crew for what they call as the 'biggest ensemble of live one-ring circus today.'
Speaking in front of the media right after he landed at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport last week, Nicholas said, 'We've scoured the globe to find the best artists in world. I've never done it before, this is probably one of the biggest circuses I've ever produced in my life, and I've been doing it for a long time.'Nicholas — who apparently also comes from a family with extensive circus history with his father, 'Count Nicholas,' as the lead ringmaster extraordinaire of the traveling Ringling Brothers circus — first performed with his troupe in the Philippines back in 2012. This year, Super American Circus will feature amazing and talented performers which include winners of the prestigious world-class talent search 'America's Got Talent' and thrilling acts such as the motorcycle team in the Globe of Danger, the amazing Sky Wheel, the High Flying Motorcycle, the life-challenging aerialists, the beautiful aerial ballerinas and the amazing jugglers that will happily keep everyone hanging onto the edge of their seats. 'We have two motorcycles going on a high wire at the same time, we have motorcycles in a ball of steel — three of them, beautiful aerial ballet, acrobats, contortionists, funny clowns. I can go on and on but I want you guys to see it for yourself. It's going to be a great show. And if they know the movie 'The Greatest Showman,' that's our theme and we have an American singer that sings the song,' Nicholas, who just finished shows in Florida, Honolulu and Guam, excitedly shared.Super American Circus will stage the show on December 21 until January 8, 2023 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater, Newport World Resorts in Pasay City. Soyangco and Chiong mentioned that they will also be inviting less fortunate children to watch the show. Apart from their Manila shows, Super American Circus will also perform in Cebu and Davao.
