    Was at it a few weeks ago. It's rubbish. Don't waste your money. The performers looked at best uninterested and their performances were riddled with errors. Best bit of Courtney Brother's was a trapeze act but that was only 5 minutes out of around 90. The juggler was good but dropped a few balls/pins when under pressure. The animals were really just horses running around in circles and cats performing tricks (to be fair I'd say it took a lot of work to get cats of all creatures to do tricks). The clowns who are key to keeping kids entertained while the acts are setting up were really really poor. More head scratching than funny. They opened with this sort of an artsy thing where neither the lighting, music or performers really carried it off. It all just looked like they had seen another circus do an act last week and they were they had spent a couple of evenings working it out but were far from finished. Just after the second half started our son was bored and wanted to leave and he loved both Fossetts and Duffy's. Personally I would think Duffy's is way ahead of the other two performance wise while Fosset's clowns were by far the best. If I were you I'd wait for one of those.
