ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (1010 WINS) -- Cirque Risque, a raunchy, adults-only circus, is returning for a second run at the Showboat in Atlantic City.
The performance will follow the family-friendly daytime Super American Circus.
Performances at the adult version incorporate elements of burlesque, classic circus acts and adult comedy.
Both versions of the 90-minute performances start June 16, with the family version running at 4:30 p.m. and the adult version going on at 8 p.m.
The shows will run until Sept. 5.
After a successful run last year, both shows plan to up the stakes with almost double the acts in each.
Audiences can expect some overlap, like the “Globe of Danger” act in which two motorcycles do loops around a sphere.
Aside from the raunchier outfits and lurid performances, the adult show is stylistically free form with one act blending into the next, whereas the kid-friendly show follows a traditional structure with a ringmaster ushering the audience from act-to-act.
Depending on the seats, the kids show tickets range from $15 to $65 and the adult show tickets range from $35 to $85.
