Saltimbanco: A spectacle to remember!

There are parenting milestones in a young parent’s life that are worth divulging. Last weekend, I had the amazing opportunity to watch Saltimbanco at the SM Mall of Asia Arena with my favorite girl, Sakura who will turn seven this month. I have had the pleasure of watching other Cirque du Soleil shows in the past (Zumanity is my favorite of them all) but Saltimbanco proved to be a very special show because it was Sakura’s first time to watch the theatricality and spectacle of a circus that the Cirque group is so well known for.

Saltimbanco is only showing till tomorrow and is off to Taiwan after the Manila tour. So catch it before the circus leaves town. I guarantee you and your children will be delighted by the amazing acts that leave everyone holding their breath as the performers deliver their moves with utmost passion and precision. The best part of Saltimbanco was watching Sakura squeal in delight as her eyes widened, her jaw dropped and her blue eyes transfixed with wonder.
