Following four weeks of heats and an electrifying final show, the winner of the UK's first ever circus competition was announced on Saturday night. Hand to hand balancing maestros Louis and Beren has been crowned the best act in the land in a competition created by Underbelly Productions, the production arm of Underbelly Limited and Circus Space, the National Centre for Circus Arts.
Attracting nearly 100 entries, Circus Maximus has embraced a wide range of circus skills, which has reflected the wealth, and range of talent that the UK has to offer. During the heats five acts were selected by a combination of audience vote and an expert panel of judges to take part in the stunning finals.
These comprised the dizzying skills of Sylvia Pavone whose spins and twists with hula hoops created a series of sparkling images, Ben Brown who pulled and squeezed into muscular contortions onaerial hoop, the swinging, hanging and leaping talents of Fran and Lucie on Cloud Swing and Tom Ball whose strength and poise on static trapeze stole the audience's collective breath away.
