The hit of the Nelson Arts Festival returns to the Theatre Royal in 2012.

See more of the Loons Circus Theatre Company than you’ve ever seen before. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry and we know you’ll want to come back for more.

Hanussen the Palace of Burlesque is a raunchy night full or circus, song, theatre and mayhem performed by The Loons Circus Theatre Company with live accompaniment from Carmel Courtney and band.

Following their international and national tour of The Butler in 2010/11 The Loons Circus Theatre Company return to Nelson with their sell-out show! 

The story is based on Erik Jan Hanussen, a mentalist and variety theatre owner in Berlin who parallels Hitler's rise. He was a lover of women and the casbah.

With a dynamic aerial set incorporating authentic 1930s film projection, Hanussen the Palace of Burlesque brings you live music and circus feats to thrill. An atmosphere is created that will carry you through a range of eras, locations and emotions and leave you on a high.

This show contains nudity  - R16.

Special thanks to the Nelson Arts Festival team for bringing us the wonderful production as part of the 2011 festival.
