The circus is coming to Malvern.
Circus promoter Tony Hopkins is celebrating 40 years in the business by touring his 2023 production of Circus Montini.
The show will be taking place on Malvern Link Common from October 11 to 15.
Since the start of his career in 1983, Yorkshireman Tony has promoted and toured family favourites such as Chipperfields Circus, Gerry Cottle's Circus, the Netherlands National Circus, Billy Smarts Circus and Circus Fiesta.
Circus Montini is a deliberately down-sized show created so it can visit places that do not often see a circus, but without reducing the quality or quantity of the acts or production.
The show is made up of an array of performers including a stunning unicyclist from Argentina, jugglers and some brilliant break-dancers from Hungary, and antipodiste jugglers from Ethiopia.
Circus Montini has a very full, fast-moving programme and also includes clowns such as Petro, who has joined the show from Ukraine.

“Paying a kind of tribute to those early showmen who made circus a social favourite, Circus Montini may just have succeeded with a blend of high British standards of presentation and with the excitement of international performance,” a spokesperson said.
From Wednesday, October 11 to Friday, October 13, there will be shows at 4.45pm and 7pm.
There will also be circus performances on Saturday, October 14 at 3pm and 6pm, and on Sunday, October 15 at 12.30pm and 3pm.
Tickets are available from circusmontini.com
