“It’s always fire-eating, fire-breathing, and fire-twirling that are my personal highlights of any show that features fire, air, and water. Audiences are fortunate that Kinga Józsa and Pixie are key members of the show.”

“The staging of the final ‘mermaid cove,’ as a shifting tableau that includes many of the performers, is a great way to conclude any time with so many mythical creatures — complete with the creation of some very large bubbles, and the use of a large water tank.”

Show Information
Mythical Creatures is an immersive circus and fire experience that brings a magical garden world to life through aerial artistry, fire performance, flow arts, acrobatics, and storytelling. It can be tailored across multiple formats:
- Stage Show: A full theatrical production with aerial, fire, and a mermaid tank finale — audiences are seated and guided through the world by a mystical host.
- Walkthrough Experience: Audiences roam freely through an enchanted space where mythical creatures appear, interact, and perform around them.
- Roving Characters: Individual creatures (fairies, dragons, mermaids, forest elves) move through an event space, delighting guests with close-up encounters and interactive moments.
- Guided Experience: A structured journey where a host leads audiences through different creature encounters in sequence, blending performance with immersive storytelling.
The world of Mythical Creatures can be conjured in a wide range of settings — an indoor studio or theatre, a warehouse, an outdoor garden, a garden maze, or a festival site.
