La Clique returns to London this Christmas for its 20th anniversary season in Leicester Square, from 6 November 2024 to 5 January 2025.
The groundbreaking show will feature an unforgettable cast of awe-inspiring cabaret and circus world artists as they take to the stage in a once-in-a-lifetime lineup. Prepare for more sequins, fearless stunts and mind-blowing performances, with extra exceptional artists joining for performances throughout the run.
Joining the company for the first time ever is one of the finest hand balances in the world. Danik Abishev, who previously performed in Limbo, is set to stun audiences with his renowned ladder manipulation and hand-balancing act. Cornelius Atkinson brings his astonishing solo aerial performance to the Spiegeltent. Also making their La Clique debut are roller skater duo Isis Clegg-Vinell and Nathan Price, who defy gravity and will blow audiences away with their death-defying performance. Asher Treleaven, a longtime favourite of some of the early La Clique seasons, returns to the show in its 20th anniversary year alongside the spellbinding hair-hanger Miranda Menzies and America’s Got Talent semi-finalist Bayley Graham who’ll bring his unique tap dancing to the stage.
Returning favourites include aerialist Katharine Arnold, tension strap performer LJ Marles, world-class juggler Florian Brooks and London cabaret act Chastity Belt, with final cast members to be announced soon.
This 20th-anniversary production is a triumphant celebration of La Clique’s legacy. With its intimate, speakeasy-style atmosphere and immersive stage setup, La Clique invites audiences to experience a thrilling and often risqué journey that challenges traditional cabaret norms.
To celebrate their unprecedented 20 years of performances across the globe, La Clique are offering 20 tickets to each performance for just £25. Additionally, every Friday and Saturday at 9:30pm, La Clique Lates will take over Leicester Square for the first time ever. This one-of-a-kind, 70-minute show with no interval promises to be the best late-night plan in London this Winter.
From November, audiences are invited to join the cast for a spectacular evening celebrating this beloved show in the iconic Leicester Square Spiegeltent. Featuring all-new acts alongside returning fan favourites! Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, La Clique promises to be a night not to be missed!
David Bates, The Spiegelmaestro said: “With every show, we delight in welcoming new members to our dysfunctional family. Spanning generations, this legacy season meets the latest, with performers at the peak of their powers. Come join us and raise a glass for La Clique’s 20th Anniversary!
