International Circus Festival of Montecarlo: tonight on Rai 3. Anticipations

Tonight, Friday 24 December 2021, Christmas Eve, the Monte Carlo International Circus Festival is broadcast on Rai 3 in prime time, the traditional appointment during the Christmas holidays with circus art at its highest expression. Conducted by Melissa Greta Marchetto. In all, two first evenings are planned, Friday 24 and Friday 31 December at 21.20 on Rai 3. Let’s see the previews, games and performances of the evening of today, 24 December, with the International Circus Festival of Montecarlo.

Advances and artists

A competition between top-level artists from every corner of the planet; a demanding competition, evaluated by a jury of experts in the sector and chaired by Princess Stephanie of Monaco who, at the end of the evening, will deliver the circus oscars: the bronze, silver and gold clown. On Christmas Eve the most beautiful and significant performances of the 43rd edition of the Festival are proposed, among which those of the Russian choreographer Gia Eradze, creator of a series of extraordinary numbers, stand out.

First of all, the phantasmagoric Tribute to Fabergé. The Filinov Troupe will perform, instead, in one of the most spectacular and dangerous disciplines of the circus, the Russian swing, on which the artists perform dizzying jumps at a breathtaking pace. The brilliant Russian director Alexander Grimailov brings his latest creation to the Festival, a combination of the disciplines of the aerial trapeze and the Russian bar, presented by Troupe Aliev.

Equestrian tradition will not be missing, this time represented by a troupe of women only, the Cossack riders of the Royal Circus. Finally, the comic part is entrusted this evening to Without Soks, who revisit the great Russian clownish tradition in a contemporary key, and to Cesar Dias, a young Portuguese comedian, who has been able to create the hilarious character of the clumsy seducer.
