THE circus returns to Southampton this week with a brand new show.

Continental Circus Berlin will be performing in the big top in Mayflower Park from tomorrow until Sunday July 17.

With spectacular circus acts, music and youthful energy, the show incorporates fantastic performers from all over the world.

It will include everything from rola balancing on a motorbike to super fast Las Vegas quick change.

Daily Echo:

Clowns Angelo and Eddie will guide the audience through the production, which also includes aerialists, quick change artistes, high wire walkers, the rotating wheel of destiny, motorbike balancers, Hula Hoop queens, whirlwind acrobats and the death defying Globe of Death with riders travelling at G force speeds inside a mesh dome.

Housed in a climate controlled, socially distanced, Covid secure theatre style big top, this magical production is brimming with an international cast of circus talent from around the globe.

The Continental Circus Berlin say this is their best show yet and there is something for audiences of all ages.

They are looking forward to bringing their live feats and stunts back to Southampton, the second stop on an exclusive UK tour.
