“Angels & Demons” Body Paint Photoshoot

On November 5th a collective of amateur and professional photographers commissioned Imagine Circus body painters to create a compilation of six body painted cirque performers for an “Angels versus Demons” photoshoot. Our performers not only posed for photos, but performed a variety of fire dancing, acrobatics, and flow arts. Highlighting the imaginative vision of four body painters, this collaborative project resulted in a stunning display of art, beauty and the melding of creative minds.

Shibari in the Garden of Eden

To bring a sexy side to this Secret Garden party, our performers surprised guests with a one-of-a-kind shabari performance. The contemporary meaning of Shibari describes an ancient Japanese artistic form of rope bondage. The origin of Shibari comes from Hojo-jutsu, the martial art of restraining captives. We offer unique shibari performances which involve two performers working together to create visually intricate patterns and elaborate knots.

Fire, Circus, & Fancy Drinks at Mulino Italian Kitchen & Bar

An evening of majestic cirque and fine cuisine, Imagine Circus hosted their upscale video shoot on September 22, 2017 at Mulino Italian Kitchen & Bar in downtown Raleigh. The perfect setting for elegant footage, our performances included stilt walking, solo and partner aerials, aerial bartending, fire dancing, acrobatics, belly dancing and body painting. With Mulino’s sparkling outdoor pool, we couldn’t help but station our custom stage (built by Circus Gear) in the water creating reflective LED and fire images that danced across the liquid surface. Later, our fire dancers cooled off by entering the water for a hot and refreshing performance! Mulino’s exudes an exquisite ambiance of class and style, making it a perfect place for dinner or a fancy after hours cocktail. Big thank you to Mulino’s for sharing your amazing space!

Thank you to our amazing photographers Slater Mapp and Bonnie Stanley Photography!

Cocktails & Cabaret at C Grace

On September 10, 2017 Imagine Circus visited C Grace in downtown Raleigh for “Cocktails & Cabaret,” a classy evening of performance as we captured footage at our upscale, sexy promo video shoot. Amidst the lush red velvets, rich gold trim, and textured wall paper, performers presented bellydance, snake charming, stilt walking, burlesque, pole, acrobatics, body painting, roving magic and tarot card reading. Audience members sat around in dim light, sipping libations and enjoying sensual Sunday evening entertainment.
