Circus Oz was born from the extraordinary cultural climate of Australia in 1978. The founding members loved the skills and tricks of traditional circus but wanted to make a new sort of show that a modern-day audience could relate to, adding elements of rock'n'roll, popular theatre and satire.

Promoting the principles of equality and teamwork, Circus Oz was a fresh and original voice in circus and the company was immediately popular with audiences.

The show is at 7.30pm each night with a 2.30pm matinee on Thursday. Tickets are priced £9 to £25.
