The Circus of Horrors\u252c\u00e1<\/em>is\u252c\u00e1celebrating its 21st anniversary and is taking to the road with its latest incarnation “The Never-ending Nightmare”. The group can be found at St David’s Hall on the evening of Wednesday 22nd March.<\/p>\n

The spectacular features an amazing amalgamation of bizarre, brave & beautiful acts all woven into a Alice in Horrorland<\/em> type story driven by a mainly original soundscape & performed with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek!<\/p>\n

Annually The Circus of Horrors<\/em> plays over 100 UK theatres and has even played at festivals around the world,\u252c\u00e1including ‘The Fuji Rock Festival in Japan (twice), the ‘Wacken Festival in Germany plus shows in Chile, Uruguay, Holland, Belgium, Argentina, France, Italy, Ireland, Finland, Hong Kong and Moscow, where it became the 1st UK Circus ever to perform in Russia. The show has also been hosted for 10 nights at London’s O2.<\/p>\n

You may recognise\u252c\u00e1The Circus of Horrors\u252c\u00e1<\/em>from Britain’s Got Talent, where they reached the finals, or from their various subsequent TV appearances on shows such as:\u252c\u00e1The X Factor, The Slammer, Daybreak, Fairground Attractions, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Body Shockers, Fake Reaction, This Morning, Ant & Dec, The One Show\u252c\u00e1 & A Royal Command Performance.<\/em><\/p>\n
