James Taylor, company director of concert show specialists Entertainers, said: "It’s a smash-hit circus musical and is guaranteed fun for all the family.

"It takes you on a truly wondrous journey as a monochrome life bursts joyously into kaleidoscopic colour.

"From The Greatest Showman to Moulin Rouge, Hairspray to Rocketman the Musical, there’s something for everyone, all brought to the stage in unique, spellbinding style.”

"(The show is) a cracking new spectacular suitable for all ages.
