Double Happiness

This Melbourne-based performing arts company delivers a remarkable fusion of theater, dance, and circus performance, incorporating a unique elevated medium that sets their act quite literally above the rest. The five-meter sway poles create a large-scale visual spectacle that can perform to audiences numbering in the thousands while still remaining engaging and accessible.

Originally inspired by the image of a field of wheat swaying in the breeze, the poles' extreme strength and flexibility allow the performer to bow to impossible angles, swaying back and forth in a hypnotic dance as the audience looks up in wonder. Their world-renowned performances have achieved a near-cult status in almost every continent across the globe, and they perform regularly at festivals, special events, and private functions.

A poetic and virtuosic aerial display celebrating the notion of unity, this show's oriental theme will transport audiences to an exotic faraway place, a realm where emperors and empresses set flight in search of love and happiness. Beautifully extravagant costumes and elegant choreography bring this concept to life. Originally created for a season at the Marina Bay Sands in Singapore, this performance will add excitement and a touch of something different to your event.
