⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Show:
The whole show is a bit like a variety show, showing off the talents of various acts! They are anchored by Ring-Leader Mooky and clown Mr Boo. The circus has been in the family over 31 years and the circus itself hasn't missed a single season in the whole time (including during Covid!) You can tell Mooky and Mr Boo are brothers as they bounce off each brilliantly and are actually funny! Several acts stood out for me. The opening act of Glenn Folco juggling with badminton rackets, starting with 3 and building up to 5 was impressive as he didnt drop a single one!
Another Act that was spectacular and had me hiding behind me hands was the Incredible Gerling Troupe who brought out 2 mega wheels that span with someone body in the wheel and even worse, someone walking on top of the spinning wheel. They then increased the suspense by asking one of the to do this blind-folded!
There is also other acts like a contortionist and acrobatic springboard act!
Throughout this Mr Boo interacts with the audience, joking around with them!
One of the closing acts is a Tightrope act who, walk over the flooded ring. The final of their act involves 3 of them being connected with bars, then 2 members standing on those bars. This was very tense, and you hear them calling out to make sure their steps in time with each other.
The finale consisted, all the cast standing around the ring, but this time because of circus traditions, when ever a cast member has a birthday they get thrown into the water. All the rest of the cast then jump in as well!
Seat
The seats are all unreserved so you can sit in which ever one you like. The gradient means there is uninterrupted views for all the seats! The only place reserved are the front 2 rows which are a extra price.
Merchandise
There is a program to purchase with information about the cast. There is also light up sticks, spinners to used in the show. There is also circus equipment you can buy during the interval.
Final Thought
This a fun family show which has you on the edge of your seat, gasping and just laughing. Its only 2 hours long and its well-worth the money!!
