Underbelly
This is a high energy, bellyful of circus entertainment complete with clown, juggler, acrobat and magician. The ringmaster holds everything together with skilful banter and the help of his astounding moustache!
There’s a series of impressive and varied performances to delight and impress, and it’s well pitched for both children and adults to enjoy. The bumbling and hilarious clown stole the show for us, but we were suitably wowed by all of the other daring and technical feats.
The age suitability recommendation is 5+ but my 4 year old thoroughly enjoyed it. There’s enough going on to keep them engaged and entertained. But with just one performer taking centre stage at a time it’s not overwhelming for the little ones and they can focus on what’s going on properly.
My mini reviewer said, “I like the clown, but was he happy or sad?!” and, “Can I get a sparkly gold outfit like that?”
