Shows and Performances
Where the training meets the ring
South Coast Circus isn’t just a place to learn… it’s a place to perform.
From captivating fire shows to breathtaking aerial acts, our performers bring the tradition of circus to life both locally and on major stages.
Every performance reflects the same values we train with: strength earned, skill respected, and moments that stay with you long after the lights go down.
Adelaide Fringe
Each year, South Coast Circus takes to the stage at the Adelaide Fringe and every season to date has sold out.
Our Fringe shows blend spectacle, storytelling, and skill, building a reputation for performances that audiences don’t just watch, they feel.
Regular performances
We are proud to regularly perform at Kick Back Brewing, delivering dynamic fire and aerial entertainment in a live, high-impact setting.
These shows are raw, close, and unforgettable; circus as it was meant to be experienced.
Signature SCC Shows
Throughout the year, we produce our own in-house productions at South Coast Circus, including:
Annual Mid-Year Birthday Shows; Themed productions, celebrating our community and growth
​​
Christmas Shows; theatrical, high-energy, and packed with festive spirit
​​
Special Productions; like The Greatest Show; a full-scale circus experience that brought together everything SCC stands for
​​
CircAxe; where it all began - combining highly technical heavy metal productions (Scott Reed’s String Theory) with Chantelle’s signature blend of aerials, flow and acrobatic choreography.
These shows are where our students and performers step into the spotlight and become part of the ongoing circus story.
SCC TRibe
The SCC Tribe is our youth performance team; a select group of young artists who represent everything South Coast Circus stands for. Entry isn’t based on tricks alone. It’s earned through consistency, attitude, and a genuine commitment to our values: work ethic, belief, safety, and community.
These are the students who show up, put in the work, support those around them, and respect the process. They train with intention, perform with purpose, and carry the standard of SCC into every show and community event we’re part of.
As performers, the Tribe gain real-world experience across aerials, ground work, and performance craft, building not just skill, but presence, reliability, and professionalism under pressure.
The SCC Tribe has undertaken travel, training and performance opportunities across the country, including events in Victoria, Queensland, The National Training Project in New South Wales and The Lunar Circus Training Festival in Western Australia.
More than a team, the SCC Tribe is a pathway. It’s where future leaders are shaped. Many of our coaches begin here; learning not just how to perform, but how to guide, support, and uphold the culture that defines South Coast Circus.
This isn’t just about being on stage.
It’s about earning your place in the ring and carrying it forward.
A Living Tradition
We don’t perform for trophies.
We perform because circus is meant to be shared.
Every show, whether on a Fringe stage, at a local venue, or under our own roof, is part of a tradition that values authenticity over gimmicks, connection over competition, and performance as a craft built over time.

Built Different
We don’t treat performances as one-off spectacles.
​
Our shows are built from the same foundations we train every day; progression, safety, and respect for the craft. That means what you see on stage isn’t rushed or improvised. It’s earned.
