A MAGICAL circus theatre adventure can be enjoyed by a family audience.

Ernie's Journey will be performed on Millennium Green, Bridport, on Sunday, September 25 at 2.30pm.

This show comes to the town courtesy of Bridport Arts Centre.

This seamless integration of circus, physical theatre, stage magic, poetry and puppetry is 'a truly dazzling spectacle', promoters say.

An original live harp score will take the tale from the dreamy realms of distant shores to the most raucous sea shanties.

This show is particularly enchanting for 4-11 year-olds but the high-skill circus will amaze audiences of all ages.

Follow the story of Ernie, who discovers that being himself and following his own dreams can lead to all kinds of wild adventures.

Ernie's Journey has been designed to connect audiences with the waterways around where they live and how they feed into national and international ocean systems.

As well as the performance, a circus skills workshop and bubble workshop will be held, which is included in the ticket price.

Tickets cost £10 for adult, £6 for children and £25 for a family.

They're available from Bridport Tourist Information Centre, Bridport Town Hall, South Street DT6 3LF. Tel: 01308 424901 or by going to the website www.bridport-arts.com
