Gifford's Circus is a traditional English circus which tours the West Country every summer.
Established in 2000, Giffords Circus is a small circus company that delivers circus / theatre fusion to the villages and market towns of the south west. It combines dance, comedy, horses and live music in a two hour show, located on village greens in a small white tent surrounded by hand-made burgundy and gold showman’s wagons.
The 2004 show was called 'Pearl'.
The 2006 'Joplin' tour had a 1960s theme reflected in the costumes and music.
The 2008 tour was called ‘Caravan’ and was set in a horse fair in around 1900.
The 2010 tour was called Yasmine and was inspired by the life of legendary equestrienne Yasmine Smart, who played herself in the production.
The 2011 tour was entitled War and Peace and details Napoleon's disastrous intrusion into Russia from a Russian Aristocratic family's view
Giffords Circus was founded and is run by Nell and Toti Gifford who, when not on the road, concentrate on landscape architecture.
