CIRCUS Funtasia prepares for their first ever visit to Cirencester, and will be entertaining crowds at the Royal Agricultural University from Wednesday, June 14-Sunday, June 18.

This all-human circus includes talented acrobats, Duo Stefaneli, who will perform two dramatic gravity-defying performances.

Tracy Jones, founder and ring mistress, said: “And we welcome Duo Peris, all the way from Spain, who will be wowing audiences with their incredible roller-skating act and aerial feats.”

Duo Peris, a brother and sister from four generations of circus family, have been roller-skating from a very young age. Prepare to be amazed as they skate, spin and fly around the ring at great speed.

French tightrope-walker Elodie is joining Circus Funtasia for her first ever performance in the UK.

Elodie dances across the wire with grace and her act is not without danger, as she attempts to hula-hoop whilst balancing on the tightrope.

The show also features the UK’s youngest performing juggler, Nia Nikolova Jones. At just 13 years old Nia’s fast and furious juggling act will keep you on the edge of your seats.

Nia said: “I started juggling when I was seven years old, but I’ve been performing since I was three. My first act was a trampolining act with my dad, who’s an acrobat. I love being in the circus because we’re like one big family who look out for each other.”

Circus Funtasia has enough to keep audiences of all ages entertained, with face painting, flashing lights, popcorn, candy floss, hot food, and even a bar.

“Our all-human show is very contemporary, with modern music and fast-paced comedy,” ring-mistress Tracy revealed. “We don’t use animals because we prefer to focus on the incredible energy our acts bring.”

Throughout the show there are comedy performances from fresh-faced French clown Anthony.

But you may need nerves of steel to watch the big finale which features four motorcycle riders inside the terrifying Globe of Death.

  •  The show runs twice daily from Wednesday, June 14-Sunday, June 18. Visit circusfuntasia.co.uk or call 07706168507 for more details and to book.
