    Funny, engaging and plenty laughter

    by jambird on 2/17/17Hollywood Pantages Theatre - Los Angeles

    This was a valentines day outing and the show did not disappoint. My wife and I both enjoyed every minute of it. This show is for all audience: mom, dad, children, husband and wife. Children, especially, will enjoy the show because the circus master randomly picks audience members to participate on stage.

    Perfectly Amazing

    by NicoleaWright on 2/14/17William Saroyan Theatre Fresno Convention & Entertainment Center - Fresno

    This was one of the most original fun shows I've been to this past year. My little sister loved all the theatrics and the "elephant" peanut. The ring master put on an amazing show, even pulling people from the audience, it was fun watching some little kids go out there.

    Spectacular and Oh so Entertaining

    by PDQMINI on 2/14/17William Saroyan Theatre Fresno Convention & Entertainment Center - Fresno

    Tell your Friends and spread the word. This show is so different than anything you may have experienced in the past. Its a wonderful mix of old school skilled acts and todays technology in the form of Lights, Sounds and puppetry. The Circus is brought back to Life in the most ingenioius way. It looks, sounds and feels like a real Circus from 1903 and reminds you of a true European Circus. There are Thrills and Spills. Acts that will keep your palms sweaty and on the edge of your seat. Ring Master and Magician David Williamson is Wonderful. His gift of Magic and his Character are all engaging. You will believe that he is in fact Willy Whipsnade. All of the performers are top notch and Willy will entertain everyone in the crowd. I was fortunate to see their Premiere Performance at the William Saroyan Theater this past Saturday evening. It is so Joyus and refreshing. If you do not see this show, you will be missing something great. And yes bring your Children! After seeing this show it's sad to think that Ringling Brothers is bringing down the curtain. If they could just see their way clear to change their ways and do what this troupe is doing they could be viable again. Go see this!

    by hititnquitit on 2/14/17William Saroyan Theatre Fresno Convention & Entertainment Center - Fresno

    I attended the show on Saturday and it was an unforgettable event. I laughed, cringed, gasped and was amazed the entire time. I would recommend the show to anyone I know regardless of age.

    Very Different

    by BKUS on 2/14/17William Saroyan Theatre Fresno Convention & Entertainment Center - Fresno

    I bought the tickets thinking this was a musical. It isn't . It really is a circus circa 1903. Things real people can do. Jugglers acrobats and arielists. No glitz and no fancy technical equipment. No net, either. Some spangels but nothing outrageous. The ringmaster is wonderful and interacts very well with every one in the audience. He works well with kids especially. Polite patter...some local references and just the suggestion of snake oil salesman. I missed the big cats but they have 2 wonderful "elephants"; mother and child. They are the inhabited puppets made famous by "The Lion King" and very well done. A very satisfying and refreshinly different evening.
