11am, 1pm and 2.15pm. ‘She ran away to the circus’ tells the story of a little girl called Lilly who’s a little bit wild. Halloween is approaching and she is dressed up ready to find a party. Tired of not feeling she belongs in the world around her she goes in search of an exciting adventure in the hope to find her ‘happy’ place. When the circus comes to town Lilly can’t wait to go join the fun. The adventure inside the Circus tent sees Lilly meeting all the Circus acts. The ringmaster, Mr Strongman, snake charmer and a clown who tell Lilly how they came to join the circus. But will it be the place she has been looking to run away too? This original story is bursting with poetic narration, live music, catchy songs, silly dancing and sensory theatre. An immersive show that gets to the heart of finding our ‘happy’ place and how running away from our sadness won’t solve our problems but how talking to people can. Running time is 40 minutes and the show is performed in an intimate setting on the floor.
