It’s girls on top in this rip-roaring, trail-blazing night to remember!

A range of acts will be announced over the coming weeks (keep your eyes fixed on us) and oh yes, did we mention they’re all female?

Jess Love: And the Little One Said @ Jacksons Lane
Jul 14 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm

Combining high-level circus skills with pathos, humour and beauty, Jess Love creates a vision that is at once delicately touching, visually enchanting and heart-warmingly playful. Dark clowning, dirty acrobatics and surreal sideshow feats go hand-in-hand with slapstick, roller-skating, hula hoops, skipping and hopscotch acrobatics – phew! With crafted storytelling and awe inspiring images on a bed of roses and broken glass, it’s so sweet you’ll want to squeal!
