BENISE, and his Emmy Award Winning Nights of Fire Cast, returns with a new World Music & Dance production “THE SPANISH GUITAR”. This amazing show will integrate real footage of Benise in his voyage across the globe allowing us to follow his passionate journey through the cobblestone streets of Old Havana, an Arabian Desert, the romantic canals of Venice, the oldest bullring in Spain, a Paris café, and a 2000 year old sacred Buddhest Temple in India.

In this new show Benise’s guitar becomes the keeper of stories of glory and tragedy through times and worlds gone by, a treasure chest of inspiration. His masterful and passionate playing, brilliantly choreographed dance numbers and orchestral pieces make this show a truly magical journey.

Dating back to the Han Dynasty more than 2000 years ago, Chinese acrobatic spectacles were first called “Bai Xi,” meaning “one hundred amazing acts,” in reference to the performer’s seemingly limitless skills and innumerable feats they could perform. These daring and beautiful talents were featured in command performances for China’s imperial courts and have been passed down and enhanced through generations. Cirque Shanghai Bai Xi combines all aspects of the traditional and the modern in acrobatic stage performance; awesome displays of physical strength and incredible feats of balance, traditional and contemporary dance and martial arts…all performed in spectacular costumes, on the stage and high in the air. This grand theatrical production from Cirque Shanghai Bai Xi is a breathtaking spectacle!
