The Vampire Circus at State Theatre New Jersey

Heralded as a mix of circus cabaret and theatre, The Vampire Circus is a mysterious, tantalizing, fun, dark, cutting-edge production that is a phenomenal night of live entertainment. Featuring the multidisciplinary skills of international performers showcasing theater, dance, and gymnastics, this amazing show pushes the physical boundaries of human performance. Mortal spectators will experience horrific feats of Cirque acrobatics, comical audience interactions, contortionists, jugglers, acrobats, and clowns. Tantalizing sounds and mesmerizing illusions catapult audiences into an emotional roller-coaster of fear and joy, laughter, and wonder with raving cheers for a “Mad Graveyard Clown.” 

The Vampire Circus is an immersive ride through the Underworld and Vampires inspired by the magical, captivating allure of legendary traveling carnivals—and a vision of Francisco Santos, CEO founder and Cirque Du Soleil veteran performer. Set in Bohemia during the 19th century, Count Dracula contemplates a plan for world domination, when he decides to open a traveling circus with his gypsy bodyguards. The Vampire Circus is a perfect cover-up to travel unnoticed and begin his world reign of terror and turn all humans into an army of vampires for global dominance. 

The Vampire Circus will delight the senses and deliver the unexpected. As the moon comes out, the magical mystique of the Vampire World begins. Come meet the Vampires. We will leave the lights off for you!
