The cast of Pirates consists of actors, dancers, acrobats and some who do all three things! It is a truly international crew and we've captured artistes from all four corners of the globe. Amazingly, the cast as a whole have won 27 Gold, 24 Silver and 24 Bronze medals at various World and European Acrobatic Championships. A further 55 Gold medals have been won at national level.

This year we have 10 new cast members bringing with them a host of new skills and tricks from around the world, including Bulgaria, Poland, Russia and of course the UK.

The cast are handpicked from all over the world by Show Director Martyn Smith who, as a former sporting acrobatics World Champion, knows exactly what skills are needed to be a true pirate performer. "The show is always evolving" says Martin "It gets more visually stimulating each year."
