WE'RE JOINING THE CIRCUS.....

Grimsby Telegraph

ROLL up, roll up! Russell's International Circus is bringing the big top back to town this year ... and a Grimsby Telegraph reporter is going to take part.
Voted Britain's Best Circus 2010 in an online poll, organisers promise this year the show is even bigger and better than ever.
Spectators can look forward to the death-defying revolving rocket routine from Amanda Russell, a second generation Russell who choreographs the shows and runs the circus with husband Rusty Russell, a hilarious clown and ringmaster.
You will also get to witness the amazing Jumping Juniors, who will be flying through the air, unharnessed, from the terrifying, all-new springboard.
And, if training goes well, on Tuesday, Telegraph reporter James Dunn will be joining the Jumping Juniors. Sadly, the performance will not be before the public – but his colleagues will be on hand to tell you all about it.
Strongmen Tibi and Krisztian will be entertaining the crowds with their incredible hand-to- hand balancing act.
Captain Antonio Candela will be heating up proceedings with his fire-breathing act, and expect Ramon to be shining bright with some UV juggling.
There are also all the classics to look forward to, with clowns Alex and Skinny, comedy from Lizzy, 8ft inflatable clowns Big Bill and Giant George and Disney characters for the kids.
Rusty said: "We are delighted to bring you an all-new circus spectacular which is a blend of the top international circus artistes with the very best of British skills.
"We are proud to present award-winning British comedy alongside the very best in aerial artistry, a show full of breathtaking thrills, laughter and excitement, creating a mixture of emotions that will leave your heart pounding and will stay in your mind for the rest of your life."
No animals take part in the show.
Russell's arrived in Humberston Road, near Pennells Garden Centre, yesterday and is now setting up for the first show on Wednesday.
There will be shows at 5pm and 7.30pm on Wednesdays Thursdays and Fridays, at 3pm and 6pm on Saturdays, and at 2pm on Sundays, until they leave on Sunday, September 25.
Ticket prices range from £8 to £12 for children and £10 to £16 for adults, but you can get two tickets for the price of one if you present this article at the door.
