Director Paul said: ‘Although we travel to some fantastic towns and locations, Cosham is our favourite venue of the whole tour.
‘All of our family and friends are able to see us and we have built up a very loyal following of people who like to support their very own locally based circus.’
Foot juggler Grace Olivia will be among those performing, along with Argentinian acrobat Sebastian, who shows off his skills at the top of a pole, ten metres above the audience.
