Two former acrobats allege they were underpaid and overworked by the Australian-based Cirque Africa, with one performer claiming he could not afford to eat.
Another performer claims that when he asked for his money the directors threatened to tell his wife he had affairs with other women while on the road.
Cirque Africa was the highest selling show at last year's Adelaide Fringe Festival, has performed across the country and is currently entertaining families at the Werribee Zoo in Melbourne.
