Secret Heart

Synopsis:
Roll Up! Roll Up! See the last ever performances of Hackenschmidt's Circus...For most people living in Helmouth, the travelling circus, down at heel and on its last legs, is little more than a side show. To Joe Maloney, a shy introverted boy who senses life holds more for him, the circus is something far greater. Once he enters the big-top, home of Corinna the young trapeze artist, Wilfred and his Dancing Dogs and the mysterious blind woman Nanty Solo, his world will never be the same. And then a tiger comes for him and Joe knows that he must lead it out into the wild forest, only then can the circus rest in peace. Secret Heart is an inspiring story of imagination and discovery, of wonder and transformation that cannot fail to delight, move or charm audiences from 9 upwards.
