Wainscott - ­Cirque Hamptons: The Electric Cirquit performed at East Hampton Studio in Wainscott, over July 4th weekend was a big hit, enjoyed by thousands who came out to the Hamptons for the holiday weekend. It was the first live show for East Hampton Studio's in-house TV station, WVVH-TV Hamptons TV.

There were three shows, Saturday night, Sunday matinee and Sunday night. The Sunday night show was aired live on WVVH-TV.

The show featured aerial drummers, aerial stunts with contortionists, electric dancers, a German wheel, spinning cube, acrobats, a contortionist, a two-man balancing act, electric hula hoops, and more. Performances included a DJ, cocktails, and food.

"Millions of television viewers were able to enjoy VVH TV Hamptons Television's LIVE broadcast from East Hampton Studio, says Greg Schimizzi, Chairman of VVH-TV. "We are looking forward to more East Hampton Studio events and broadcasting them to the homes of our New York audience on FiOS Channel 14, Cablevision 78 Time Warner Cable."

Actor Fred Melamed ("Crimes and Misdemeanors," "Hannah and Her Sisters," "A Serious Man") attended the Sunday matinee performance. "Cirque Hamptons was a fabulous experience! It fulfilled a promise often made but seldom kept, an enthralling day for kids and parents both. Lights, music and amazing feats to fascinate the young, so artfully presented by a splendid, sexy cast that my wife and I were equally delighted."

Cirque Hamptons was started by Gordon von Broock, Erik von Broock and Michael Wudyka. Wudyka owns East Hampton Studio, the largest indoor space in the Hamptons, hosting concerts, charity events, and TV and movie productions. On Facebook: East Hampton Studio.
