Evergreen Cultural Centre presents Forev Circus at the Evergreen Cultural Centre Studio Theatre November 24 and 25 at 7:30 pm.
THE HUSBAND-AND-WIFE team of Alexandr Yudintsev and Santé Fortunato toured North America and Europe with Cirque du Soleil together before they got married. Now they have their own act, Forev Circus, which features contortion, juggling, hula hoop, Cyr wheel, aerial hoop, and more.
Everything in their new stunt-filled show, which tells the story of how they met and fell in love and what their life on circus stages is like, has subtle meaning. The rose petals are from their actual wedding day, for instance, and a letter is an actual card that he wrote her before asking her to marry him.
The event is part of Evergreen’s 2021 Speakeasy Sessions, the theatre transformed into a 1920’s inspired, cabaret-style setting with tables, and snacks available to order.
