The east London acrobat turned West End sensation

A London acrobat has shared how he came up with a "unique" routine for a theatre show that has toured the globe.

Hackney-born LJ Marle began his circus journey at the age of 17 and has gone on to travel the world in Cirque du Soleil and Palazzo.

He has been part of La Clique, currently at London's Leicester Square, for two years and he says his newest performance is "very different" from most other circus disciplines.
