THE Circus of Horrors returns to The Courtyard with a brand new show celebrating the Carnevil that is Victorian London.

The circus's 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 Drawfs, Death Defying Aerialists, A Guinness World Record-holding Hairculian Diva swinging solely from her hair and lots more.

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 a cast with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek and the devil driven rock ’n’ roll of Dr Haze and The Interceptors from Hell.

Circus of Horrors is part of The Courtyard’s Extravaganza season! Audiences can get 10 per cent off tickets when booking for two or more Extravaganza themed shows!

Circus of Horrors will be at The Courtyard on Monday, January 25 at 7.30pm. To book, call the box office on 01432 340555 or visit courtyard.org.uk
