THE much-loved Gloucestershire-based Giffords Circus, has returned home after sell-out shows across the South, attracting famous fans such as Hugh Grant, Dawn French, Helena Bonham-Carter and Adele.
This year’s show is ‘Any Port in a Storm’ and is better than ever with lavish costumes and comic scenes directed by Cal McCrystal who is credited as the brains behind some of the funniest theatre in Britain.
The performances are high energy, slapstick and acrobatic, leaving you gasping in awe and laughing until your sides ache.
The setting is the Spanish Court in the 17th Century and everyone’s favourite clown Tweedy returns, along with flamenco dancers, hilarious acrobats, a gymnast, a Cuban acrobatic troupe and the Giffords band playing live music throughout the show.
Enjoy a three-course meal before the show in the travelling Circus Sauce restaurant, or try the new Field Food wagon.
Giffords is on Minchinhampton Common from Thursday, August 10 until Monday, August 21, before moving onto Marlborough.
