Ever wanted to see a wheel of death? You’re in luck, Paranormal Cirque touring Washington
If you thought that all circuses were family-friendly fun, you’d be wrong. Cirque Italia’s Paranormal Cirque, a horror-themed circus, is making it’s way across Washington this May and June, with stops in Puyallup, Tacoma, Auburn, Bellingham, Vancouver and Kennewick.
What is Paranormal Cirque?
In case the name didn’t give it away, Paranormal Cirque isn’t your typical circus. For one, it features an act called the “Wheel of Death.” The show combines elements of theater and cabaret with acrobatics, illusions and other more traditional circus acts.
With a self-designated R-rating, the show isn’t geared towards families. Anyone under the age of 17 needs to be accompanied by a guardian 21 or older in order to get in, according to the circus’s website. Children under the age of 13 aren’t allowed at all.
