Comedy, dancing, singing, fire and circus tricks... what more could you want? Take the DeLorean to the 1980s with this fun, energetic, colourful circus show. With a fantastic soundtrack from artists such as Queen, Guns n’ Roses and Olivia Newton-John, the show will have you bopping and humming along.

 

The circus acts included trapeze, hula hoops on roller-skates, silks and Lyra hoops. The performers were all extremely talented and they were very smooth in transitioning between any little hiccups. The audience was on the edge of their seats watching them twist their bodies and fly across the room. There was also a good mix of comedy throughout and the music was well selected to match what the performers were doing.

 

The host was very funny and entertaining. He engaged the audience and interacted with people well. His singing was also enjoyable and he maintained the energy in the room while the other performers were preparing.

 

Not only was there 80s music, but references to the films from the much loved decade. This included Top Gun, Footloose, Flashdance, Ghostbusters, Back to the Future and Dirty Dancing. They even re-enacted the famous lift scene from the latter film. Also impressive was the fantastic costumes. From fluorescent leggings to high volumed hair, the attention to detail was wonderful in taking everyone back in time. The extravagant makeup also added to the feel of the show.

 

This is an act for all ages, but those who love the 80s will enjoy it even more. The intimate setting gives you a close up experience of the skills that go into a show like this. So runaway with the circus for a night!
