Experience
Flying Lev/High Bar


Three high bars set 7 meters above a net form the aerial playground for daring acrobats who "fly" to and from the arms of a mighty catchers, suspended by their knees on a cradle swing. The astounding act culminates in a death-defying plunge into the net.

This High Bar apparatus was especially designed by Andrei Lev and Choreographed by Pavel Brun just for Alegría. (A duel-version of this apparatus appeared in Mystère beginning in 1995). Three high bars set more than 40 feet above the stage form the aerial playground for daring acrobats to fly to and from the arms of mighty catchers, suspsended by their kneees on a cradle swing.

"Querer" and Little Tamir fill the set-up time for the act, as Little Tamir and a bird fly through the air. But, a couple of minutes thereafter, "Icare" fills the big-top and eight men climb up one by one to their perch atop the big-top. One by one, they flip and turn around the apparatus before letting go and placing their future in the hands (literally) of the catchers. High Bar is an amazing, sitting on the edge of your seat, performance that can not be missed!
