The show, which is suitable for family audiences, is a side splitting, sideways look at the hilarious performances and secretive lives of circus clowns. This piece of dance theatre captures the joy and delight that we have all experienced at the circus while portraying the darker, harsher traditions of the shadowy world of circus life.
