Some of the acrobats who will be performing at the circus
The Moscow State Circus has brought its latest show to Bradford, which has been inspired by the legend of The 12 Chairs.
The show features a large cast of circus artists from Russia, many of whom are performing in Britain for the first time.
The production includes the queen of Russian circus Yana Alievia on a revolving aerial chandelier, the breathtaking Stalkions, who back flip and perform pyramids 30 feet in the air on the high wire, and the Whirlwind Rubsovsm troupe, who catapult themselves high into the top at breakneck speed.
The circus will be held at Peel Park, Bradford, until Sunday.
