Head First Acrobats: Elixir Revived
7 September @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm AEST

This is Cirque du Soleil meets Magic Mike in a wild, post-apocalyptic circus comedy packed with jaw-dropping stunts, irreverent humour, and world-class acrobatics. Sexy, bold and unmissable.
Four eccentric scientists attempt to create the Elixir of life, and a forced to test the concotions on themselves. Chaos and Mayhem breaks loose in the Laboratory, and what follows is a fast-paced, laugh-out-loud spectacle packed with gravity-defying acrobatics, physical comedy, and more than a touch of cheek.
Critics have praised the show’s exceptional mix of humour and daring circus skills. Featuring some of the world’s rarest and most dangerous circus apparatus, the performance pushes the physical limits of the human body. The narrative unfolds with each stunt, fuelled by the ambition and desperation of the characters, while impeccable comedic timing and acrobatic displays create a captivating spectacle.
