It has been designed and built by a group of the architects and engineers under the leadership of Mr. I.Belopolsky and still today it strikes everyone with its technical possibilities. There wasn‘t and still there isn‘t a similar circus anywhere in the world. Its auditorium represents a 36 meters high amphitheatre consisting of 23 rows totaling to 3400 seats.
Traditional circuses are a rarity in many parts of the world these days, but the Moscow State Circus is one troupe keeping the art form vividly alive. Headquartered at its flagship arena near Red Square, it tours the world for much of the year bewitching audiences with the extraordinary talents of its array of artistes.
The Circus employs approximately several hundreds artistes at the present time, many of whom have been awarded the prestigious titles of People’s Artistes and Honored Artistes of the Russian Federation.
These artists perform over fifty specialized acts, ranging from clowning, juggling and aerial gymnastics to bear and porcupine training acts.
