Breathtaking! Propelled by two Russian swings, acrobats are hurled high into the air, alighting on their partners' crossed wrists or on a landing canvas. In feats of outstanding audacity, the acrobats even soar from one moving swing to the other!

Like newly crowned royalty, Icarus and The Promise take their place at the table of honor, surrounded by guests and a feast of boundless bounty. Both have come so far. Both have changed so much. Everything they sought is now theirs. Let the celebration begin. One after another, the performers leap from the Russian swings, soaring effortlessly across the Grand Chapiteau sky. In the Grand Finale, the acrobats are shot skyward, performing double, even triple twisting layouts that carry them gently into the clouds. For Icarus, this is poetry in motion. His dreams have all come true.
