The Circus of Horrors started its gruesome beginnings at the 1995 Glastonbury Festival and became an instant hit, touring all over the world. However, the last few years has seen the profile of The Circus of Horrors jump tremendously after rampaging into the finals of Britain’s Got Talent. To this date it is still the only circus ever to reach the finals.
Last year saw another giant leap for the show when it began a series of dates in Londons West End becoming the first circus to appear in a West End theatre for 100 years.
The latest incarnation Welcome to the Carnevil is set in Victorian London in 1899, Jack the Ripper was still at large and it was the age of the Freakshow. A young girl dreamt of running away to join the circus only to see her dream become a nightmare in a decrepit and corpse ridden Carnevil, plagued by a swamp of killer klowns, sword swallowers, demon dwarfs, death deifying aerialists, a Guinness World Record holding hairculian diva swinging solely from her hair and awesome acrobats.
The story twists and turns with grisly murders and sensational shocks all interwoven with some of the greatest and most bizarre circus acts on earth, performed by an almighty cast with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek and the devil driven rock n roll of Dr Haze & The Interceptors from Hell.
If Quentin Tarantino had directed Cirque Du Soleil then you would be only half way there. Tickets can be purchased online at www.camberleytheatre.biz or by calling the Box Office on 01276 707600.
