| Description | 'A crazy evening of controlled anarchy'. A blend of skills from the big top and elements of modern theatre. Against a background of a sleazy side-show alley, a variety of characters perform their routines under the eye of their far from pleasant boss, a tall puppet, Mr Fingers. As the ringmaster's relentless demands increase, his company of acrobats, tumbling wrestlers, giants, trapeze artists, jugglers, clowns and even a radio-controlled mouse, begin to plot against him. | ||||||||||||||||
