A French circus will return to town next week!

 The all-human Santus Circus will be performing their new show, ‘The Edge’, at King George V playing fields, Colchester Road, from May 27-31.

New features include the ‘nerve-tingling’ motorcycle ride around the ‘Globe of Death’.

The world's fastest knife thrower will also take a slice of the action, as will high-wire walkers, aerialists, foot-jugglers, plate-spinner, whip-crackers and clowns.

Family tickets are £40, individual admission is £9 but £7 on Wednesday.
