More than 30 performers will perform a two-hour spectacular at the Netherlands National Circus at Southsea Common in April.

It is the first time the circus will perform in the United Kingdom – and hot on the heels of their star performers being awarded a prestigious prize for their skills.

Tickets are available for the twice-daily show between April 5 and April 11.

A spokeswoman for the circus said: ‘We are really excited to be able to bring our brand new show to the UK for the first time and we hope it will be well received as we pride ourselves on producing high quality, affordable family entertainment.

‘There will be something for everyone as we can guarantee laughs, thrills, suspense and lots of action.

‘It is important to remember that in a world full of digital and virtual entertainment with computer games and the internet, nothing can ever beat bringing the whole family together to witness the magic of a live performance.

‘Several of our acts touring with us in 2018 will be making their UK debut so we will have many new and exciting feats that have never before been seen in this country.’

Performers include the ‘Duo Extreme’ who are set to fly through the air in the Big Top showcasing their skills.

Their act is made more daring as they perform suspended over a tank of water, at times being lowered or dropped into the water.

They dance under water in a similar way to synchronised swimmers before being lifted up once more.
