The Edge
hosted by | Vox Bandicoot
An irresistible, light-hearted, zany work full of juggling, magic, climate change and loads of gags. Beautifully written. The spotlight is on one of the most important environmental challenges in history - energy conservation to reduce greenhouse gas pollution.
The Circus stars the incredible Compost Knievel, Bozone Layer and Mr Elvis Presley. Yes! That’s right! The King lives ... and returns for this one performance only! Circus Sustainable …performing … Vox Bandicoot do not miss this galah show.
