The Circus of Horrors is coming to The Courtyard in Hereford the New Year, and it’s sure to be real scream.

It’s a new show to celebrate a quarter of a century in the business, with a thumping sound-track to match your thumping heart.

The adult show will be “a celebration of the 25 years and will include an amazing amalgamation of acts, driven by a rock n roll sound scape, a show that will have you sat on the edge of your seat when not falling off it with laughter”.

The spokesman added: “The almighty cast that stormed into the finals of Britain’s Got Talent is now a West End and World Wide Hit will take you on a rock n’ roller coaster ride of amazing and bizarre acts.

“It is a circus like no other and a show you simply can’t afford to miss.Whether you are a Rock fan or theatre goer The Circus of Horrors has something for everyone.”

But but what can an audience expect?

Well, only recently the Circus put out an appeal to find a new pickled person - someone willing and able to squash themselves into a very small jar.

That tells you something...
