RCC Aruba, a popular group of Aruba acrobats, will perform tonight on 'America's Got Talent.' They are just one of several acrobatic and variety acts poised to hit the stage and woo the judges in order to advance in the competition.

'America's Got Talent' Season 17 premiered on May 31 and saw the return of the entire Season 16 judging panel, as well as the host. Each act that performs in front of the judges is allowed 90 seconds to showcase their talents. An act advances to the next round if it obtains at least three "Yes" votes from the judges. Otherwise, they are out of the competition.

Who are RCC Aruba?

These acrobats are part of a troupe that performs at Riu Antilles, Riu, Barcelo, and Tamarjin hotels. From October to December 2021, the acrobatic team RCC was on tour in Budapest, Hungary. RCC won the bronze medal in the International Budapest Circus Festival, the world's third-largest international circus festival, in January 2022. It was a historic accomplishment because it was the first time they battled against premier circus performers from nations such as Ukraine, Cuba, Ethiopia, Spain, Hungary, Russia, and Italy. The RCC received a special prize in addition to the bronze medal. This prize was granted by a well-known circus family to the most popular group among the general public.

International circuses soon approached the RCC with numerous offers to perform. Their first tour in 2022 will begin in July in England, where they will perform at the Hippodrome Circus for three months. They will perform at another International Circus Festival in September 2023, and in October, they will begin their tour in Paris with the Cirque d'Hiver Bouglione. The Cirque d'Hiver Bouglione was inaugurated by Prince Louis-Napoléon, Napoleon III Bonaparte's only child.

RCC Aruba proudly represents Aruba and its name at all of its performances. As a creative entity, the acrobatic troupe is dedicated to elevating entertainment to new heights. They often post images and videos of their practice and performances on Instagram. RCC Aruba's work often involves balancing each other on their hands, as well as hanging from ropes and doing jumps.
