360 ALLSTARS

Fast and furious, 360 ALLSTARS connects the street with the elite to deliver extreme urban circus to Auckland Arts Festival 2016.

Boasting a stellar international cast, including a World Champion BMX Flatlander, two World Champion break dancers, an internationally renowned  basketball freestyler, and an exceptional roue cyr artist, 360 ALLSTARS turns the concept of traditional circus on its head.

With chart-topping, looping beat box master Sam Perry playing ringmaster, and award-winning percussionist Gene Peterson providing a live sound track, the crew of show-stopping street artists spin, twist, juggle and balance against a backdrop of computer-generated projections.

Combining street smarts with slick hip-hop style and attitude, 360 ALLSTARS promises a louder-than-life show with performers from the USA, UK, Europe, Australia and Aotearoa.

Fresh from sell-out shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, this event takes you right to the very edge with a killer soundtrack and stunning visuals, as it unleashes the extraordinary artistry that comes from street culture.
