Little Angel Theatre’s Miniature Travelling Circus
28 Mar–19 Apr 2025
Aimed at ages 2 - 5
Duration: 45 mins approx.
Roll up! Roll up! Take your seats for the smallest circus in town.
George the ringmaster has quite the challenge on their hands. The circus isn’t quite what it once was but even still, George has curated a programme of acts more bedazzling than ever.
But first they must make sure all of the acts are ready to razzle-dazzle. Where on earth is Flop? And why is Smelly Dog making all that fuss?
Join Little Angel’s Miniature Travelling Circus and be delighted by beautiful puppets, nostalgic magic tricks and acts so tiny you may wonder how you can possibly see them! From performing mice to acrobatic fleas – this circus has stars you won’t see anywhere else!
