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 appear, the mythical Pegasus, white-winged angels, jesters, inhabitants swan lake and other fantasy characters.

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 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 long years 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 ...

The audience could already appreciate such programs of the production center of Gia Eradze as “Five Continents”, “Baronets” and “Hippopotamus”, therefore, there is no doubt that it will be “Soviet-style” high-quality and at the same time royally chic. had to.

In the program, which is a synthesis of circus and variety art, Voronezh residents saw trapeze artists in crystal chandeliers, numbers with a black and white Pegasus, an illusion number "Gladiators", during which the girl suddenly disappeared, and a lion appeared in her place... the spectators were literally breathtaking when they watched the acrobats on the opposite swing led by Mikhail Filinov. By the way, this number with the most difficult tricks recently won a gold award at an international circus competition in China. The imagination of the ladies was stunned by a handsome equilibrist who performed intricate tricks on the piano, from which a fountain beats, and the men, secretly from their women, looked at the graceful ballerina with angel wings soaring in the air.

The audience also saw amazing animal rides - "Lions and Tigers", which is directed by the owner of the international award "Princess of the Circus" Lyudmila Surkova, and the incendiary "Africa", where they gathered a great variety of exotic animals.

“Due to the dishonesty of the producers, people stop going to the circus”

During my childhood, you could go to the circus on weekdays, and there were always several performances on weekends. Now it is unprofitable to give many performances, because people do not go to the circus so actively. What do you think, what is it connected with? Maybe with the fact that sometimes not very high-quality shows are brought in and people are disappointed?

And with this too. Most of the time, people are just scammed. It happens that unknown groups come to provincial towns and put up posters with a loud name. I remember that I spoke with one distributor who carried the Monte Carlo Stars program. He assured that the winners of the gold awards of the international circus competition in Monte Carlo were performing there, although I did not see a single star in the program. It turned out that this person does not even know that Monte Carlo is located in the kingdom of Monaco, located in France. He assured me that it was in Germany. What can be said here? Because of such unscrupulous producers, people stop going to the circus.

Yes, times are different! When I got to the circus, we went on tour in mail cars. Then, just like in my case now, 120-130 people worked in each program, a large number of animals ... And this did not frighten anyone. And today it is already perceived as know-how! I am a Soviet child, and the energy of that generation, the mentality, remained in me. I remember very well my teachers, with whom I once went to the arena - Oleg Popov, Zapashny ... And I don’t want to deviate from those circus traditions that I absorbed when I got into the circus in my deep childhood. I want the circus to always remain as large as it was before. But, to my deep regret, it is now customary to do solo tiny numbers, as they say, “on the knee”. With a minimum of props. And if the group number - then with a small number of people.

- Why, there are large teams. Acrobats on flip boards Chernievsky are frequent guests in our city ...

Of course I have. And it's good when such groups are financially supported by the Rosgostsirk company, because there are few producers like me who do not spare money for this in the name of the quality of the program. It is simply unprofitable for rental companies to carry them, it is too big an expense item. The number of the same Chernievsky is very expensive, which significantly increases the cost of the program. Imagine - 15 acrobats, 15 wives, and someone also has children ... That is, up to 40 people need to be accommodated in a hotel, fed, and all transportation costs paid. And the number lasts only 10 minutes. Yes, their attraction is amazing, the stunts are crazy, but from a financial point of view, it is unprofitable. For me, quality has always been in the first place, which is why there are five big attractions in my program. For example, in the attraction "Counter Swing" - 9 people, in "Africa", where a huge number of exotic animals are involved, - 24.

Your ideas, of course, are royal and cost crazy money. Now you already have the opportunity to implement them by investing money from the fees in the program. And when you first started, where did you get the initial capital?

I was 11 years old when I ran away from home to the circus, and of course I had no money. And I never cease to thank the legendary producer Gennady Gordienko in every interview, who believed in me and helped me. We met in Moscow, where I left Georgia. He took me under his wing, and together with him on January 20, 2000 we released the Five Continents show in Vladivostok. It is a pity that Gennady Georgievich is no longer there, but I will always remember him with warmth.

“When I ran away from home to the circus, it was a shock for my parents”

Your mother said that when you ran away from home, you never asked your father for money and ate only breadcrumbs to buy your first horse.

Well, it's my mom! She won't tell! In fact, my parents were initially opposed to me becoming circus performer. I am not a dynastic artist, I was not born in sawdust. My father was the director of the Central Market of Tbilisi, my mother taught political economy at the institute. And you can imagine their "delight" when I came home every day, all smelling of the stable - I became interested in horses and went there to clean them. For parents it was a shock! My father wanted me to follow in his footsteps, my mother “saw” me as a doctor. At first, they thought that the circus was my childhood hobby, which would soon pass. And I took it and ran away from home! Only after a while, my parents realized that my escapes to the circus are not childish whims, this is my life.

As for money, they really were not always there. I had a pony Odysseus, now deceased, who worked with me for 18 years! And during periods of lack of money, I rolled the kids on it. I invested what I earned in new numbers, leaving a little for myself to eat. Sometimes there was nowhere to live, and we lived in circus dressing rooms. I went through all this, and therefore it’s easier for me to create numbers today, the artists believe me. I don't need to explain anything - I know what muzzle a bear should wear, what stall a camel should put in, and what enclosure a tiger needs. All the problems of artists are clear to me, so I do not skimp on fees.

But do you also have some requirements for artists? In addition to professionalism, you probably demand that they look good?

Certainly! Is it invisible? I have such a fad - all artists must be beautiful! There is a certain format of people who can get into my team. There will never be another format, because I have the best show in the country. This status must be maintained. For my show, I'm not ashamed to look people in the eye.

- And if suddenly the artist is good, with a strong number, but his appearance did not come out ...

If this is a very talented artist, then I will adapt him to our show. This is my task as a director. We have our own stylists in the team, our own make-up artists who make up the artists. I understand that it is impossible to find all unrealistically beautiful people, so that they are also masters of their craft. Therefore, it is important here to create an image based on the nature of the show.

You were the Deputy General Director of the Russian State Circus for the artistic part. Why did you leave this high position?

I lasted a year and realized that it was not mine. All these cabinet-paper stories are not my play at all. I’d rather create, put on new programs and bring the next awards to the Rosgostsirk company ... This will be much more sense!

Are you interested not only in classical clownery, but also in modern circus? Do you like different genres and subjects - from French cabaret to Brazilian carnival?

I never thought that going to the circus could be so memorable. It's like I'm back to my childhood. Bright costumes, funny clowns, unique performances of acrobats and much more. I haven't been this happy in a long time! Thanks to my beloved husband for tickets to the circus!

Once again I am convinced that Nikulinsky circus is the best! And it's not just about the programs (here, by the way, they don't always make me happy. Gia Eradze disappointed me a few years ago, not the show, but the Brazilian carnival. Taste and color, in general). The point is in energy, in what Nikulin laid in his offspring. Tickets to the circus on Tsvetnoy are just an outlet, an opportunity to look, at least with one eye, at the good old circus from my childhood.

Last week I visited Yuri Nikulin's circus with my schoolgirl granddaughter. I liked their Monte Carlo program very much. Although I have seen a lot in the world, I was surprised at the skill of acrobats and trainers no less than my own Ksyusha. But by the way, she liked the host clown much more. She laughed out loud at his jokes and clapped each time he entered the arena.

Favorite circus! We have been going here for the third year already - since Artem was four years old, and he could sit through a full-fledged performance with an intermission. The show never let us down, everything is interesting, bright.

Of course, the child goes because of the animals - trained bears and dogs are a priority for him. It is difficult for him to appreciate the numbers of acrobats and gymnasts. But he gets excited about clowns. And it's good that they are on the show.

If we talk about tickets, then we don’t take expensive tickets for the first places of the stalls. Here is the middle parterre - yes, it's good and not so expensive. The first rows of the amphitheater are also not bad, if the better places have already been taken apart. When parents (tall parents) are sitting in front, sometimes I take my son in my arms so that I can see everything.

Definitely go with your child - you won't regret it!

We went to the circus on Tsvetnoy with the whole family. What can I say? Excellent performance, bright, cheerful, kind. I thought we were just waiting for a series of ordinary tricks. And here - a whole performance with well-thought-out attractions)) Maybe I just haven't been to circuses for a long time, and that's why I'm so enthusiastic. But all of us, including five-year-old Pasha, left the hall in a great mood.

"All the Colors of the World" is an amazing performance. Sorry for the big words and the storm of emotions, but I am very excited about the new show. There are exotic animals and amazing tricks and, of course, many, many, many laughs. I went to the premiere with my 5 year old daughter. You can’t even imagine how she and all the other kids in the hall liked Nikulin’s circus! Go boldly and don't even think about it - it's cool and a lot of fun!!!

During the summer holidays we went with my daughter Varenka to my sister in Moscow. And what is a trip to the capital without visiting the circus on Tsvetnoy? We simply could not go there, and for good reason. My daughter was very happy to see live clowns, she even took pictures with them after the show. Yes, and my wife and I got tremendous pleasure and finally got distracted from everyday life. We had a lot of fun with our whole friendly family.

We were here for the first time, went with the whole family to the circus festival. It is a pity that they did not pay attention to the fact that he is a youth. It would be desirable to look already at skilled actors. But, in fairness, I note that almost all the contestants performed with dignity. Equilibrists are generally beyond praise, by the way. A lot of people, but not stuffy - air conditioners saved.

The circus itself is not much different from the Bolshoi Moscow, where we usually take our daughter. Large arena, good equipment, in general, comfortable chairs. Still, there would be more distance between the rows, then it would be comfortable for tall people to sit (my husband and I - 1.90 and 1.92).

Admirers of Gia Eradze's creativity are well aware of his inexhaustible creative potential. For the past 14 years, he has been creating and improving grandiose circus performances, attractions and blocks. And finally, the moment has come when all the masterpieces he created can no longer fit into one program. This is how the Baronets team appeared - a project of the production center of the Royal Circus Gia Eradze. This is a real parade of star rides that have won many top awards at international festivals. The largest circus show in terms of animal composition: there are tigers, leopards, black panthers, bears, camels, horses, deer, white foxes, parrots, pythons, peacocks, dogs of various breeds and many other four-legged, fluffy and feathered artists. This is the quintessence of modern circus art: filigree animal training, luxurious show ballet, trick riding - not only on horses, but also on camels, and the most difficult acrobatic stunts, aerial canvases, ultra-modern stage, lighting equipment and specially designed scenery!

Attraction "Visiting the Sheikh" - a real oriental fairy tale that won Gold V International Festival circus art. Bear attraction "Gypsy camp Roma" with a wagon, dancing bears and gypsies with guitars - the owners of the "Silver Elephant" at the XIII Moscow International Festival of Circus Art. Equestrian attraction dzhigits "Apache" - the owners of the Gold Award of the VII International Festival of Circus Art in Izhevsk. Charming huskies and Dalmatians, luxurious trained parrots, aerialists, hula hoop on a mirror ball, power acrobats, sparkling clown duet "Nep" and much more, no less exciting and spectacular, await the audience of the show "Baronets".

nail new program Giya Eradze has become a unique attraction of Natalia and Andrei Shirokalov, where tigers, panthers and leopards appear on the same arena.

Trainers have already gained worldwide fame, becoming the owners of a huge number of awards at international circus festivals. Among the many awards in the piggy bank of Natalia and Andrey, the Grand Prix IV world festival of circus art in Moscow, "Golden Elephant" of the International Festival of the Moscow Nikulin Circus, "Golden Bear" of the International Festival in Izhevsk, "Golden Globe" of the International Festival in Romania, "Golden Ring" of the International Festival in Massi. In terms of entertainment, the show "Baronets" is in no way inferior to the legendary " Royal Circus”, because in everything that Gia Eradze creates, his grandiose accent of beauty, luxury and impeccable style is invariably read!
