G'day? Good evening!

I'm just back from an evening at the theatre. Mum had bought tickets to Circus Oz - she was going to take Thomas, forgetting that she'd be away, so I got to go instead.

I'm not normally such a circus fan - when you've seen one juggler, acrobat, tight-rope walker, etc... However, this was a good twist on the classics, with a lot of comedy thrown in. The funny stuff was interspersed with some truly breathtaking acts. The jugglers juggled a lot very quickly, the acrobats were incredibly athletic and graceful (and STRONG!) and the tight-rope walker... Well, he was an old man, desperate for the loo and out of toilet paper. That's the kind of show it was. Add in a contortionist in a small tank of water, some tumbling red kangaroos and an unusual (but excellent) orchestra, and you hopefully get the picture that this was no ordinary circus.

They're in Woking for the rest of the week, so catch them if you can - it's well worth it.
