Show Gia Eradze "Royal Circus": reviews
Reviews about the circus are different. But mostly they are positive. Everyone notes the enchanting spectacle, the abundance of emotions. Great attention in each review is given to animals. It seems incredible that a person can train animals like that. Moreover, each "artist" lives in excellent conditions. This moment is given special attention. Viewers can look at the conditions of the animals, make sure that the training takes place on the principles of encouragement, not violence.
Spectators emphasize that they have never seen such a show in their lives. Nothing really compares to him. Gia Eradze is very attentive to the smallest aspects, which is why today the circus has no equal. Visitors note that each number is individual, there are no repetitions. This is the case when you can’t go out for a minute and not miss anything. As already noted, the scenes are really very diverse. And what is the fact that the viewer can see all the genres of circus art in one performance. Many also like the fact that Gia Eradze himself performs at the arena. He communicates with the audience, shows his skills. Despite such a huge success, he remains open and continues to do what he loves with joy, and not solely for profit.
Some visitors also note that the rooms can move you to tears. Yes this is true! And all thanks to a professional thorough approach. The audience also likes the acting of the artists. These are not just circus performers, but real masters of their craft.

This is confirmed by the grateful responses of hundreds of people. Performances will not leave anyone indifferent - both children and adults will be delighted!
Now a beautiful show is on tour in Yekaterinburg - “The Royal Circus of Gia Eradze”. Tatyana Shirokova, choreographer, told Woman`s Day about the life of circus artists: what difficulties they have to face.
– The life of a circus artist is constant moving every 1.5–2 months. That is, each time upon arrival in the city, our team needs to unload 19 trucks, and after the end of the tour, collect them. It is quite difficult, so everyone helps, including artists. I remember the most extreme case: 5 years ago, the January tour in Krasnoyarsk. We are already accustomed to quickly unload props, scenery, costumes, personal items - everything that may be needed. But in those three days in which we "gathered" in Krasnoyarsk, the frost hit -52 degrees.
Stay at home for one month a year
Circus props are transported in 19 trucks
- In addition to the fact that it is not difficult for each employee of the circus to collect an entire apartment with him on tour in two days, our life is also not like usual. For example, many complain about the specific smell in the circus, which arises from the fact that animals live right in the circus, in spacious enclosures. We do not feel this smell - we are used to it (laughs).
We live in 8–9 cities a year. Vacation is traditionally once a year - in May. Ordinary people go on vacation abroad, and we go home, because the whole troupe is from different cities. At this time, for example, we go to the dentist, make documents - in a word, we solve everyday issues that ordinary people deal with as needed.
circus kids
Everything for children: both small spectators and artists

- In Yekaterinburg, one of our artist gave birth. This is the fifth addition to our troupe this year (laughs). Almost the whole team came to the discharge. People looked out the windows and marveled at the number of people. Everything is always colorful and big with us!
We also have a decree, because everyone is officially employed by the Russian State Circus company. But, as a rule, mothers with newborns do not go home, but stay to help with costumes or animals. When there are so many people around you who took the child, he is the nanny (laughs).
Older children travel with their parents. In every city they go to a new school, they have to adapt. But when we ask if everything suits them, they answer: “I like everything!”. Questions disappear ... The only negative is the difference in textbooks and the program. For example, we arrived from Nizhny Novgorod to Kazan, and there is a slower program. Children have to listen to the material already covered for some time.
Any circus child does something in his spare time from school. For example, my daughter, in Yekaterinburg, participates in the contest "Little Miss Yekaterinburg" and even made it to the final. The whole team will definitely come to support her in the final.
"We don't have circus dynasties"
Gia Eradze with pets
- When Gia was just starting his journey, he was only 11 years old. His family had nothing to do with the circus, and the boy burned with it. Various troupes often came to Georgia, Gia did not miss a single performance - even then he set a goal to devote his life to the circus.
But he had to not just because of the dynasty that reigns in the circus world. Despite the fact that there are circus schools, they teach such genres as juggling, acrobatics, but not training. This knowledge is passed on by relatives: from the older generation to the younger. There is not a single corner in the world where you can come and say: "I want to become a trainer."
Gia got a job at the circus as an assistant in the Horsemen of Georgia horse ride, looked after the horses. He was noticed: in the circus, desire coincides with opportunity. So after a while he began to train in the genre of juggling, and later he even went to the arena with pigeons, which flocked to the "globe" from almost anywhere in the dark hall. He put the number himself. After him, Gia's career developed rapidly, and other circuses began to offer him work. Then he decided that he would help artists like himself, who did not have a famous last name.
Two premieres in Yekaterinburg
Daria Porotova in the image of the Swan Princess performs in the ring
- We have a premiere in Yekaterinburg: a new number with a gymnast in the ring. 19-year-old Daria Porotova performs in the image of the Swan Princess. Under the dome of the circus, and even with wings - it's difficult. Below in the arena there are 9 dance ballet dancers - it turns out aesthetically very beautiful. By the way, Daria, together with her coach Marat Bikmaev, prepared the trick part of the performance in just a year - this is very little for such a serious performance, but it turned out amazing!
Tickets: 600–2000 rubles.
For the performance, a huge golden Castle was designed, towering under the very dome of the circus. The air gymnast under the dome controls the puppets. A grand piano studded with Swarovski crystals appears in a fabulous way in the arena. Fountains are splashing from the piano, among which a tightrope walker, surrounded by ballerinas, performs unthinkable tricks. Indian tribe and exotic animals: llamas, skunks, lemurs, vari, kangaroos, ostriches, catto lemurs, porcupines, zebras. Masters of the Spanish circus school, accompanied by yaks. Roman gladiators in chariots drawn by black horses. Dangerous stunts are performed by acrobats on opposite swings. The attraction with lions and tigers "Wild World of the Jungle" is also unique: along with African lions and Sumatran tigers, white tigers appear on the arena. The main character in a cage with predators is the Honored Artist of Russia Gia Eradze, along with his partner Lyudmila Surkova.
The “Royal Circus” of the Honored Artist of the Russian Federation and Georgia Gia Eradze is a grandiose project in which artists of various genres and exotic animals participate: llamas, zebras, noses, lemurs, porcupines, gibbons.
This fabulous show opened the 55th anniversary season at the Tula State Circus. Last year, the season here also began with Gia Eradze's show "Baronets", but what the audience saw this time is amazing! The program employs 120 artists, uses more than 2000 exclusive costumes, author's scenery and props, 19 trucks are used for transportation.
"Royal Circus" is a performance of a new generation that breaks stereotypes and excites the imagination. In addition to the fact that a constellation of numbers has been collected here, experienced directors, choreographers, lighting designers and production designers have worked on each of them, it synthesizes all genres of circus art: training, aerialists on canvases and chains, illusion, equilibrium, variety ballet and much more.
For the performance, a huge Golden Castle was designed, decorated with velvet and shimmering with lights, a three-level curtain, sometimes hiding the entire arena, and crystal chandeliers.
The spectacle of the action is fascinating: in the three hours that it lasts, the audience seems to be making a journey through different continents and eras. Indians and Roman gladiators on chariots rush before them, incredible aliens, the mythical Pegasus, white-winged angels, jesters, inhabitants of Swan Lake and other fantasy characters appear.
A grand piano, sprinkled with Swarovski crystals, appears in a fabulous way in the arena, fountains splash from it, and an equilibrist surrounded by ballerinas performs unthinkable tricks.
Bears dance an incendiary Russian quadrille together with a corps de ballet, and acrobats perform dizzying stunts on opposite swings, as if refuting the law of universal gravitation.
The virtuoso dexterity of the jugglers on the "arrows" is impressive - a unique rotating apparatus that has no analogues in the world.
The Wild Jungle World attraction is a performance full of passion, in which African lions, Sumatran tigers and rare representatives of this species, white tigers, act. But it all starts with the appearance of corps de ballet dancers dressed in fantasy costumes of werewolf people who, in their dance, seem to transform into wild animals.
The viewing experience can be summed up in one word - “amazing”. After the end of the performance, the audience did not want to leave the hall, but gave the artists a long standing ovation.
A large tour, in which the "Royal Circus" arrived in Tula, began at the Moscow Circus of Yuri Nikulin on Tsvetnoy Boulevard, where more than half a million people watched the show in eight months.
After the premiere in Tula, the producer, artistic director of the group, Georgy Eradze, was presented with the coat of arms of the Royal Circus, created by Moscow designer Evgeny Lebedev. This is a genuine work of art, inlaid with gold leaf, where all the symbols that characterize this project are intertwined, decorated with a crown on top.
- We received the biggest gift today from the audience, - Georgy Giulevich noted. - The Tula audience is sophisticated, they have seen many different programs, and their reaction today to our performance, their standing ovation is the highest mark. Of course, we were all worried today: despite many years of work, the premiere always excites - like the first exit to the arena. The circus is a living art, complex, but this is the professionalism of the artist, the measure of his responsibility to the public ...
All genres of circus art are dangerous - for example, the number "Oncoming Swing" is very complex, every movement is verified there. No wonder its performers are the owners of many gold awards at various world festivals. This year they are going to China, which is famous for its acrobatic school, and let's hope for their next triumph, then they will go on New Year's tour to Germany, to Stuttgart. And in a few months, 59 artists of the Royal Circus will represent Russia at the most prestigious festival of circus art in Monte Carlo. There will go a swing, "air", a white block, which is like our visiting card ...
