Paranomal Cirque offers its guests a two-hour theatric immersion of the cabaret, comedy replete with demon sword swallowers, a machete-wielding serial killer and zombies (of course).
The show runs in Regina until the end of the month at the JYSK parking lot of the Victoria Square Shopping Centre, with two shows every Saturday and Sunday night, along with an evening show every weeknight except Tuesday.
If you think you can handle it, get your tickets before they run out!
