Husband and wife Liam Lane and Brooke Miyasaki, who met on the hit show Fuerzabruta in New York, will perform for the first time in his home city of London this Christmas.

The actor-turned-aerialist and his American dancer wife will star in a new production of the spectacular at the Roundhouse, in Chalk Farm, where it was previously the fastest-selling show in the venue’s history.

The Greenwich-born actor had wanted to join the company behind the show from the moment he heard stories about its gravity-defying stunts.

He fulfilled his dream by making contact with the producers when on holiday in New York three years ago — and topped it all off by meeting and marrying Ms Miyasaki. The couple have one child, Scout, who is 21 months old.

Now the return of Fuerzabruta to the Roundhouse has offered them the chance to make their British debut together and introduce Scout to British life.

“It will be the perfect homecoming — to get to come home with the show and my wife and my daughter all at once. And I haven’t performed in London for a long time now,” Mr Lane said.

“We’ve visited before but for 10 days max. For my wife to experience being a Londoner will be great. I’m hoping Scout will pick up a London accent.”

Miyasaki performed until she was four months pregnant so “Scout has done the show in the womb and she picked up some rhythms. She’s definitely starting to dance and sing”.

Mr Lane’s last London performance was at the Unicorn children’s theatre three years ago.

Fuerzabruta opens on Monday and runs until March 2. roundhouse.org.uk/fuerzabruta
