They were the only circus ever to reach the finals of ITV TV show Britain’s Got Talent and became the first circus to perform in London’s West End for over 100 years.
A typical show can involve brave acts woven into a Alice in ‘Horrorland’ type story performed with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek.
Annually the Circus of Horrors plays over 100 UK theatres and this tour has expanded to take in festivals throughout the world – the show also played 10 nights at London’s O2.
