"This year it's a story of acceptance. In the story we are taking a homeless man and accepting him into the circus family and he is willing to work hard and in the end he performs the circle act.

"The circus never has a limit for age, we say people can enjoy it from the age of one to 100.

"The title of this year's show is What a Wonderful Life.

"It's the second time we have performed in Walsall, last time it was heavily raining, different to the weather now, but everyone was really friendly and the mayor came out to see us too."

Circus Sallai will be performed at 5pm and 7.30pm on weekdays, 2pm and 5pm at the weekend and 2pm only on Monday.
