THE circus has come to town, and this time it is a circus with a difference: a Spanish company with the added attraction of flamenco dancers to accompany the high-wire walkers, trapeze artists, acrobats and clowns.
Circus Ol, the Spanish National Circus of Arts established this year by Madrid trapeze artist Tonia Cristo, are on their first British tour, playing at the Grand Opera House in York all this week.
The show includes flamenco dancers Arte Y Fuego and the Pepin Leon Trio clowns. Performances begin at 7.30pm nightly, with a 3pm matinee on Saturday and Sunday. For tickets, ring 01904 671818.
