Chair
Stacking

Chairstacking is one of the most visually arresting acts in circus — a slow, deliberate, nerve-shredding build of chair upon chair, with a performer balanced impossibly atop a tower that has no right to stand. Every placement is precise. Every breath is audible. Every audience is completely, utterly silent.

This is an act that needs no introduction and no explanation. The tension builds itself. As the tower grows higher and the ground moves further away, your audience becomes a single, breathless entity — and that moment belongs entirely to your event.

Performable with 1 to 3 artists, the act can be configured as a solo centrepiece or a duo/trio build where performers work in tandem, each adding to the stack. Requires a flat surface — suitable for both indoor and outdoor venues.
