| Traversa: A Solo Walk Across Africa |
| Presented By Fran Sandham |
Critically acclaimed author and public speaker Fran Sandham took on the challenge of a lifetime, by walking across Africa from coast to coast, from the Skeleton Coast to the Indian Ocean, completely alone with no backup, no support team, no one to carry his gear, no sponsors, no film crew, no journalists, no fuss, no cheering crowds, and no strings attached. Above all, it had to be on a one-way ticket: no safety nets, no get-out clauses and nothing to fall back on.

| The Circus Of Horrors |
| The Four Chapters From Hell |
The new show The Four Chapters From Hell will take you on a journey though all four of the Circus of Horrors incarnations, beginning in a French Asylum where the inmates are liberated and become the performers in the show. The show contains some of the greatest, most bizarre beautiful circus acts on earth, plus pickled and bendy people, voodoo warriors, knife throwers and an almighty cast of 26 of the wildest, weirdest
but most of all greatest performers on earth.
This is without a doubt a musical masterpiece with the help of the Devil driven Rock ‘n’ Roll of Dr Haze and the Interceptors From Hell.
Imagine if Quentin Tarantino had directed Cirque Du Soleil then you would be only half way there.
This really is it! |

As seen in Phoenix Nights, That Peter Kay Thing and the critically acclaimed Ken Loach film Looking For Eric, Smug is a venerated veteran of the British comedy circuit. He’s a headline act all over the UK and a cult hero in his native Manchester.
