A smash in New York City and Las Vegas, Absinthe is coming to Brisbane and is sure to shock, potentially offend, and definitely amaze audiences with its naughty and politically incorrect yet outrageously talented cast.

Arriving for a strictly limited season from June 2 under the intimate Spiegeltent in King George Square, Absinthe is an adults-only mix of circus, burlesque and vaudeville for a modern-day audience. Brisbane audiences will be wowed by new international acts, handpicked for the Australian tour, which will join the already acclaimed line-up of jaw-dropping performances including a breathtaking sexy aerial hoop duet, a heart-stopping human foosball routine on the high bar, and an edge-of-your-seat tight rope walk. Other acts include stunning acrobatics, hand balancing and the building of an impossibly high chair mountain, all hosted by the ‘filthy rich and just plain filthy’ Gazillionaire and his crazy assistant Abby Bobbins, who aren’t afraid to toe the line of political correctness.

Dubbed as a bona-fide international phenomenon, Absinthe is a not-to-be-missed spectacle that will leave you wanting more. Tickets are available now via Ticketek – The Weekend Edition readers have access to special discount tickets when they use the code ABS15.
