The world-famous Moscow State Circus is wowing audiences in west London.

It is performing on Shepherd’s Bush Green until April 19 before moving on to complete a national tour.

Its latest production is 7 Zhelaniy and is based on the Russian folklore story of Cvetik-Semicvetik, or “the flower with seven colours,” by Benjamin Losin.

The Stynker Russian Bar troupe of the Moscow State Circus appear to have found a novel way of boarding a bus as they get in a little practice at Shepherd's Bush Green
