Gerry Cottle's Circus - the name's a guarantee of the biggest, brightest and best in circus entertainment.

Gerry Cottle built up his famous circus from nothing to become a household name, featured on TV's 'Seaside Special' variety shows and

entertaining hundreds of thousands each year on tour under a 2000-seat Big Top.

The Circus stopped touring over 15 years ago so that Gerry could move in to other ventures. He's since become owner of Wookey Hole, the famous

caves and amusement complex in Somerset.

But life's not the same without the excitement of the sawdust ring, and Gerry Cottle's Circus is back on tour in Britain for the first time in many years. Gerry said: "It will be a very lively, upbeat show and it will be hard work. We are good-value family entertainment -- circus has been around for a long time, nearly 250 years, and people still want a good circus. If I don't do it now, while I've still got my energy and health, I will never do it".

He added: "We're helping families fight back against the cost of living -- seat prices are competitive, and travel costs are low because WE come to YOU!"

There are no animals, and innovation and quality are at the top of the agenda for the international company of human performers.

GERRY COTTLE'S CIRCUS 2010 features:

From Russia, twice the skill and twice the glamour -- the BUGROVI SISTERS on the deceptively dangerous Rola-rola

From Ukraine, the high-flying TERSKY BROTHERS, daring gymnasts on the horizontal bars

The TRIO BOKAFI high-flying Springboard acrobats from Hungary

The beautiful DESIRÉE on the aerial silks

The mystifying illusions of ROSS PRESTO

Elegant and original aerialiste ALINA in the Magic Cube

HITGE -- lovely solo trapeze star from Mongolia

PLUS RIB-TICKLING COMEDY with hilarious clown ANGELO from Portugal

And lots more besides....
