Circus performers have delivered a letter to Downing Street calling for inclusion in the recent arts rescue package or to be allowed to reopen. The letter warns that their industry faces collapse in two weeks without government support. More than 50 acts including clowns, acrobats and dancers from some of the UK's top circuses joined the rally. Circuses, like all venues, had to pause production of shows back in March due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
