Circus Of The Orient Comes To Ellesmere Port

For the first time, a spectacular, fun-packed world-class circus for all the family, is coming to Ellesmere Port. The Big Top will be at Ellesmere Port Greyhound Stadium, Thornton Road, South Wirral, from Tuesday 21st Feb Sunday 26th Feb.

Featuring a galaxy of international circus stars from China, Mongolia, Bulgaria, Czech Republic and the United Kingdom, creators Carol and Phillip Gandey have travelled the world to bring you the amazing acts in their new production of Circus Of The Orient.

Featuring the Red Dragon Chinese Acrobats with their incomparable array of acts including, the leaping, rolling somersaulting repertoire of their Hoop Divers to the lavish tradition of the Lion Dance, they also combine rhythm, gymnastics and dance to showcase a quick as lightening take on skipping. Their talents continue when they dazzle at Plate Spinning, Hat Juggling and showing strength and agility in their revolutionary Rein Wheel. This is the first appearance of the Red Dragon Chinese Acrobats in the UK after extensive performances across the globe.

Phillip Gandey, Artistic Director said This production is a brilliant mix of oriental and western elements to create a thrilling, entertaining and laughter-packed show which will appeal to all the family.

Encounter the unbelievable illusions of our Circus Of The Orient Illusionists as they mystify and disappear before your very eyes.

Marvel at world class artistes from Eastern Europe whose aerial acts positioned high in the roof of the Big Top will provide an element of grace, poise, and beauty.

To accompany our array of amazing international artists our Crazy Clowns will make our spectacular Big Top echo with laughter from their crazy antics throughout the show.

The breakthrough of such a tour is down to Carol and Phillips extensive experience with both traditional Circus and the award winning Chinese State Circus, bringing together this spectacular amalgamation of funs and oriental fantasy in 360 degree comfort and heated Big Top.

Having created Circus Of The Orientspecifically to bring the show to the audiences doorstep, Carol and Phillip have set Family Friendly admission prices starting at only £6 for Children!
