TUESDAY 23 FEBRUARY, 7.30PM DYDD MAWRTH 23 CHWEFROR, 7.30YH The Circus of Horrors 21st Anniversary Tour –

12 Welcome To The Carnevil

The show that stormed into the finals of Britain’s Got Talent and is now a West End smash is back to mark its 21st Anniversary in spectacular style. The latest incarnation, ‘Welcome to the Carnevil’ is set in Victorian London in 1899. Jack the Ripper was still at large and this was the age of the Freakshow. A young girl dreamt of running away to join the Circus only to see her dream become a nightmare in a decrepit and corpse ridden Carnevil, plagued by a swamp of Killer Klowns, Sword Swallowers, Demon Dwarfs, Death Deifying Aerialists, a Guinness World Record holding Hairculian Diva swinging solely from her hair, back flipping & fire limbo-ing acrobats and lots, lots more. A show ruled by the undead and climaxing in an awesome flaming apocalypse. The story twists and turns with grisly murders and sensational shocks – all interwoven with some of the greatest and most bizarre circus acts on earth, performed by an almighty cast with a forked tongue firmly in each cheek and the devil driven rock ‘n’ roll of Dr Haze & The Interceptors from Hell. If Quentin Tarantino had directed Cirque Du Soleil then you would be only half way there. Dyma’r sioe aeth fel corwynt i ffeinals Britain’s Got Talent ac sydd bellach yn llwyddiant sgubol yn y West End, yn ei hôl i nodi ei Pen ei Blwydd yn 21 yn grand o’i cho’.

This success has led to headline shows all over the world. When Ben performs it’s as if he is inhabiting the persona of Elvis. His triple octave vocal range and perfect pitch allows him to hit the most challenging high notes. There was only one Elvis but Ben is the closest you will ever get in terms of Elvis’s looks, his singing voice and on stage charisma. Dim ond un Elvis oedd yna, ond Ben Portsmouth ydi’r nesaf ato gewch chi fyth, o ran golwg y Brenin, ei lais canu a’i garisma ar lwyfan.
