Cirque Berserk! set for West End return at Garrick Theatre this October
Cirque Berserk! will return to London’s West End this autumn with a limited engagement at the Garrick Theatre. The show promises thrilling contemporary circus acts alongside traditional performances throughout the October half-term holiday.
Cirque Berserk! is scheduled to run at the Garrick Theatre from 21 to 31 October 2026, delivering a series of performances designed to coincide with the school half-term holidays. The production is directed by Matt Page and features a cast of more than 30 acrobats, aerialists and stunt performers.
The new staging will present a blend of contemporary circus artistry with classic acts, notably including the return of the motorcycle “Globe of Death” stunt. This element remains a highlight of the show’s daring physical spectacle.
The creative team behind the production also involves choreographer Mike Denman and lighting and sound designer Robbie Lopusni, contributing to the production’s distinctive visual and auditory experience. Casting details have yet to be announced.
To encourage family attendance, the production is introducing a “Half Price for Half Term!” offer, enabling children aged 15 and under to attend at half price during the run. This initiative aligns with the holiday period and aims to attract younger audiences.
Cirque Berserk! continues the recent trend of circus productions securing West End residencies, reflecting sustained interest in live, physical theatre experiences that combine athleticism with narrative spectacle.
