MOSCOW State Circus is coming to Worcester's racecourse with a show based on Russian folklore.

The big top will be attracting the crowds from Wednesday, September 28 to Sunday, October 2.

A spokesman said: "Moscow State Circus returns to the UK with its latest and greatest production to date, based on the Russian folklore story of Cvetik-Semicvetik, or “the flower with seven colours,” by by Valentin Petrovich Katayev, where each of the petals represent a wish and is the perfect back drop for what is undoubtedly the greatest and most famous circus on earth."

This years show features the award winning Troupe Leontiv, on flying parallel bars; Stynka on the horizontal bouncing Russian bar; Veslovskiy performing roller-skating revolutions and the Trio Atlas on the floating globes.

The spokesman added: "Don’t miss this amazing show, created especially for its first ever-European tour, all housed in a state of the art air-conditioned big top."
