Open wide and say ‘Aaaah!’ Join the multi- Fringe Award winning Trick Circus on a raucous, absurd, and hilariously contagious hospital adventure.

With something for everyone, this highly skilled mix of tumbling, juggling, pyramids and more will leave you with a serious case of circus fever!

Be taken through the ups and downs of hospital life by a host of interesting characters- cheeky interns ‘help' in their first surgical procedure, expectant mothers are challenged by their own bodies, and patients celebrate in regaining control over their own health. Infused with a highly skilled mix of tumbling, juggling, pyramids and other amazing antics, ‘Operation' will leave you with a serious case of circus fever!

Give yourself a dose of Trick Circus!

 

“This show is a contagious, intelligent, action-packed hospital romp. The crew of 11 are assured and in their element.” 3.5 stars - The Age

Reviews

Uplifting without Botox

This show starts with a mean mother waiting to get plastic surgery at a dodgy hospital and it ends up with her little girl stacked three high on top of the unscrupulous hospital staff.

It's a scream and I laughed my head off and felt great at the end of the show.
