IT'S A DISASTER! When the artistes and elephants don't arrive for the show the Ringmaster's planned extravaganza has to be left to the Clowns... and they make a fantastically messy job of it!

Magic Circus is a unique and interactive theatre event for kids.

IT'S A DISASTER! When the artistes and elephants don't arrive for the show the Ringmaster's planned extravaganza has to be left to the Clowns... and they make a fantastically messy job of it! Magic Carpet have taken traditional Circus and Variety skills, dusted them down and invested them with new life and moulded them into an hilarious and mystifying play with a Circus theme.
It's enlivened by Geof Hardisty's original music score and is a fast-moving, colourful and highly-visual show combining magical illusions, circus skills and appealing puppets. There's loads of audience participation and the comedy skills of the Magic Carpet cast.
