About Xtreme Opera

xtreme opera blends the musicality of opera and the wonder of circus skill, where high fliers meet with high notes.

This entertaining medley of circus skills and an opera score create a unique and colourful experience. 25 of our young performers navigate the stage using circus equipment both familiar and unfamiliar: hula hoops, trapeze, unicycle, and even fire!
