The Unbelievables Come to Sydney Opera House Concert Hall and Arts Centre Melbourne

A brand new theatrical extravaganza, The Unbelievables, will fill the Sydney Opera House Concert Hall and Arts Centre Melbourne with the world's greatest circus, magic and acrobatic performers this summer.

From the producers of The Illusionists and Circus 1903, The Unbelievables is a fast-paced entertainment spectacle jam-packed with death-defying acrobats and aerial acts, mind-blowing illusions, comedy, and award-winning ballroom dance, all backed by an incredible six-piece swing orchestra.

Hosted by renowned New York stand-up Harrison Greenbaum, the show promises a dazzling night of laughs, gasps and gravity-defying grace. For a complete VIP experience, on-stage table-seating for The Unbelievables will give a small group of ticketholders the exclusive opportunity to see the magic up close and personal.

Creative and Executive Producer Simon Painter says: "The Unbelievables takes what we have done with The Illusionists to a whole new level. We've travelled the globe in search of the very best entertainers from a variety of disciplines and genres. This summer, prepare to be astonished by the most talented performers on earth."

Sydney Opera House Head of Contemporary Performance Danielle Harvey says: "The Contemporary Performance program is all about genre-straddling work and entertainment. The Illusionists and Circus 1903 set the standard for amazing entertainment for young and old - so get a date or gather the whole family together for an unbelievably great time."

The Unbelievables will premiere at the Sydney Opera House before transferring to Arts Centre Melbourne. Be one of the first to see this strictly limited season before it travels around the globe.
