An inclusive circus show is set to roll into town this week.

Circus Starr is set to return to the region as another inclusive circus inspired show hits the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft.

The annual community event is attended by children with disabilities and additional learning needs in the Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft areas.

A spokesman for Circus Starr said: "Unlike a commercial circus, the not-for-profit organisation adapts their event to suit its unique audience by lowering the volume, toning down the lights, and offering free tickets.

"This year also marks the first time that Sensory Packs are available for the area."

Ring Mistress Mariska Gandey will present a brand-new show which features an array of circus talents - including hilarious clown Lukinha; Nula Hula performing a sensory hoop act and Sonny Caveagna amazing all with his juggling skills.

Fundraising director Michelle Crossley said: "We love sharing our magical art form with those who usually miss out, so we are really excited to be back on the road with another accessible show.

"Thank you so much to all the businesses who have helped us make a difference in their community."

As the community interest company relies on donations to hold their inclusive events, local businesses in the area help to cover the cost of a child’s ticket.

The spokesman added: "It is thanks to the generous support from companies in the area that the event can go ahead."

Performances will be held at the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft at 4.45pm and 7pm  on Friday, January 12.

As tickets for the event are free and distributed to local schools, charities, and organisations and individual families, for any families interested you can apply for tickets - although there is limited availability - online via www.circus-starr.org.uk/apply-for-tickets/
