of people in love through their acrobatic movements. All who watch
are brought into their performance.

Take a trip into their mysterious world.

Noah's really, really...really tall toilet

On top of a 5 meter pole is a toileet especially for Noah. The America
trained acrobat, who now lives and performs extensively in Europe,
has a 15 year career.

His first time to perform in Asia, let alone Japan, he thrills and tickles
the audience's funny bone with his amazing toilet acrobatics.

Don't miss this rare chance to see "high" brow toilet humor!

☆Chinese hero Wang Hui can speak Osaka dialect☆

He speaks in a very fluent Japanese with lots of humour.
Maybe this is one of the reason of him being so popular in Japan.

He sometimes fail the stunt on purpose, and keeps the audience
in suspense.Thus, he gets a great applause from the audience.This
popularity is the result of performing for 30 years, since he was
12 years old.

We asked him "When do you feel glad?", and he said, "When the
audience is moved by my performance". He also add that "Each
year, the audience in Shizuoka has more and more high expectation,
so I must improve every year."

Check out his fantastic acrobatics!!
