The Moscow state circus visited the city over the Easter holiday. I could not resist buying a ticket when I saw the big top on Sefton park one morning. It was amazing I was a bit baffled by the Russian accent of the ring master and the Rasputin theme but overall it was just brilliant.

It all started with a cheesy eurovision like dance of all the performers with some 80’s tune, BRILLIANT. There was disappointedly no lions or tigers to be seen but the clown and acrobats were fantastic. My favorite act has to be the amazing tight rope walker who just defied gravity.

Unfortunately you won’t be able to go as the circus is back on the move to New Brighton but you could join edge hill circus society as an alternative.
