Emily Handslip, Associate Director of Urban Splash, says of the much-anticipated Weekend of Wonders:
“To have such a dynamic event at Royal William Yard is fantastic for Plymouth and the Yard. We want to showcase something that has never before been seen in Plymouth and to bring a thrilling and memorable show for visitors to the Yard and this is what The Invisible Circus does best. The talent that will be at the Weekend of Wonders is phenomenal and to think we will actually have a tightrope walker across the marina and wall walkers performing the unimaginable within the yard, means this is going to be nothing short of spectacular.”
