| This was a riot! It was the enthusiasm and joy of the performers and the stunning live music that lifted this way above street circus theatre. The leather and PVC and neon tubes made it all feel a little edgy for my 4 and 6 year old, but once the fun started and popcorn handed by the performers to the little ones, they were as wonder-struck as the adults - seeing trapeze and high wire acts from directly below is a real buzz and the frenetic energy of the cast of wild and wonderful characters spread through the audience to win them all over well before the interval. I paid £70 a pop to see Cirque du soleil in Antwerp 15 years ago and felt it was skilful but empty - this on the other hand directed your thoughts into areas it doesn't often contemplate and thrilled the audience with non-stop action that was structured to rise and fall with the spectacular rhythms of the cello, drums keyboard and sax of the band. It was a cracking evening. If you haven't been yet - go. Tonight. |

| thank you. this restored my faith in theatre. The performances were nothing more than what i expected, brilliant, but not exceptional. What i think set this apart from other performances was the cohesiveness of the company. Never before have i seen people work so hard for each other. It was a joy to be involved in a piece of theatre that was created by sheer teamwork. Brilliance! |

| Fantastic! Thankyou reinvigorated in us a dwindling interest in circus...thought we'd seen it all but how refreshing this was. If you're not sure, then go. It is truly unique. As previous posts say, the teamwork and audience inclusion is unrivalled. The specatacle is breathtaking, the music fantastic, and the boring stuff like food and drink also high quality and easy. We'd say highly appropriate for children - ours (age 7 keen on gym) was utterly spellbound for every moment.Go if u can! |

| This performance was brilliant and enraptured all of us from the 60 year old grandmother to the 7 year old. It was edgy and dynamic but also moving and visually stunning with absolutely everyone involved in the performance. We were taken on a journey which none of us will easily forget and I think that it was probably the most exciting performance which I've seen in over 50 years of theatre going - I'm just worried that the grandchildren might run away to join the circus! You must go to see this. |

| I was looking for something to take a german exchange student to see that would provide an entertaining evening out without requiring great language skills and boy did I hit the jackpot with this. The really is spectacular and exciting. What an amazing blend of dance, drama, music and acrobatics. I was mesmerised from start to finish. For the first time I was able to appreciate the danger and tension of doing trapeze, the audience is so much part of it. It really was out of this world. One tip though, don't stand next to the speakers at the beginning of the show if you get tinatus! |

| Are you there? We're not all there because we're here. The troupe made itself a history of artistic and athletic performance== who gets it ?? No more to say, just you go, leave the real behind and go! Review by local rag is dirt. No feeling, no knowing--- you will see and feel more in this free and sensual night than the written word can give you. Go! |

| I am just so pleased I read the comments on Feedback Forum and decided to go to this with the kids. Absolutely amazingly brilliant - if a bit manic and zaney! |
