Meet Pierrot, the distracted mistress of ceremonies, meant to be running the show... but her mind keeps drifting. The circus explodes into a spectacular whirl of absurd and downright fun, yet something holds her back. While the troupe soar through the air, she's grounded. She longs to fly. A feat of circus ingenuity you won't find anywhere else: a flying stage, the infamous Wheel of Death, and heart-pounding stunts that will leave your jaw on the floor. A treat for all ages that will leave you wondering how on earth they pulled it off.
