The Big Tent is back at Old Common, London Road, from March 11-15

Starring a line-up of top international artistes, Circus Wonderland is a world of thrills and spills and glitter and glamour, taking inspiration from the traditional picture book circus of our childhood memories to create a vibrant, fast moving show for today.

The popular troupe last visited the town two years ago, and their new performance promises to be the wildest yet.

With a firm emphasis on fun for all ages, clowns Kakehole and Mr Popol will take you on an adventure beyond your wildest imagination, blending side-splitting comedy with daredevil thrills.

You will be transfixed as vampires and angels swoop and soar through the air in a spectacular flight of fantasy, and Spanish stars Nico and Angelica will dazzle you with their dexterous display of whirlwind juggling.

Grace Olivia will raise the temperature with her flaming fire hoops, while Hungarian acrobatic Adonis Devid Adam will perilously perch high in the roof of the Big Top.

Award winning Kakehole and Mr Popol are joined by their lovable friend Bertie the Bear for music, magic and mayhem, with a trunk full of tricks and an exploding grand piano adding to the comedy chaos.

Presented in a fully heated theatre-style Big Top together with dancers, acrobats and foot jugglers, Circus Wonderland is a spellbinding show to enchant audiences of all ages.

The show will be at the Old Common, London Road, from Wednesday, March 11 until Sunday 15.

Performance times are weekdays at 4.30pm and 7.30pm, Saturday at 2pm and 5pm, and Sunday at 2pm only.

Tickets are priced £12 for adults, £10 concessions, or £7 on the first day.
