The world-famous Super American Circus is coming to the Philippines and performing from 21 December 2022 to 8 January 2023 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater, Newport World Resorts in Pasay City.
The Super American Circus is a modern one-ring circus showcasing acts that will excite and delight Filipino family members and barkada of all ages. Witness thrilling acts like the motorcycle team's stunts in the Globe of Danger, the amazing Sky Wheel, the High Flying Motorcycle, plus aerialists, ballerinas, and jugglers.
The Super American Circus is produced by Global Entertainment Productions. Its president and CEO Cornell "Tuffy" Nicholas is also the show's ringmaster. "Tuffy" comes from a family with extensive circus history. His father "Count Nicholas" was the lead ringmaster of the traveling Ringling Brothers circus. Tuffy was born on the Sarasota stop of the Ringling Brothers Traveling Circus. The Nicholas family raised their three children on the road and Tuffy grew up among some of the world's most famous performers and celebrities. Under the careful eye of his father, he became a great performer, mastering a variety of different acts and skills. He made his first appearance as an honorary ringmaster on a main-street float alongside his proud father at age 3.
For more than 35 years now, Tuffy has been a successful producer and promoter of circuses, concerts, festivals and, sporting events around the world. As president and CEO since 2000, he has produced over 5,000 performances — the Moscow State Circus, Modern American Circus, and International All-Star Circus just a few of them. In 2005 he produced Cirque Hawaii, a multimillion-dollar, state-of-the-art, permanent theatrical spectacular that showcased the award-winning talent of over 35 performers from around the world and thrilled Hawaiian audiences.
