What is it?

Scotch & Soda will bring their raucous, world-class mix of circus, dance and original music to London for the first time from 14th May until 2nd August. London Wonderground’s decadent Spiegeltent will host this glamorous evening of debauched and deadly fun; jam-packed with jaw-dropping lunacy, incredible feats and live beats.

A dusty desert bar.  A chance encounter.  A spectacular clash of spellbinding misfits, Scotch & Soda is a guaranteed whiskey-soaked evening of breathtaking feats, blinding charm and beatnik soul.  Scotch & Soda features gravity-defying circus from some of Australia’s finest acrobats, with music from the renowned Crusty Suitcase Band.

Scotch & Soda is a collaboration between Ben Walsh’s Crusty Suitcase Band, and David Carberry and Chelsea McGuffin, the creators of the internationally acclaimed show Cantina.  Scotch & Soda is the first time that all of these artists have formally come together to present this new production.

London Wonderground is the brainchild of Underbelly and the Southbank Centre.  A dazzling playground for all, London Wonderground is a spectacular slice of circus in the centre of London.  Back for a fourth year, the festival is renowned for hosting the best circus and cabaret from across the world in an enchanting riverside venue, complete with a magnificent 1920s Spiegeltent and various rides and attractions.  London Wonderground is part of Southbank Centre’s Festival of Love this summer.
