Families looking for fun, spectacle and laughter can enjoy The Curtain Calls (Tuesday 23 June) from In A Pickle Circus, a brand-new production exploring the colourful world of traditional circus life on the road. Created by a collection of hugely talented emerging performers trained at Circomedia in Bristol, one of Europe's leading schools of circus and physical theatre, the show combines riveting acrobatics, daring aerial performances, remarkable juggling and hilarious clowning with creativity and heart. Packed with silliness and sensational skill, it promises a joyful theatrical experience for audiences of all ages.
The Corn Exchange Newbury also welcomes back Ballet Cymru this summer with a magical reimagining of Sleeping Beauty (Wednesday 1 July) as the company celebrates their 40th anniversary. Set to Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's iconic score, the production journeys into an enchanted world of love, magic and destiny while exploring themes of acceptance and individuality.
