Synopsis

Tonight is the last show that the Little Circus will perform in Manchester. Baritone motivates his crew more than ever because there are big stakes: if the show is a success, the Prefect- who will be watching the show with his wife- will give his consent for the troupers to set up in Manchester for all of the following summer. But our friends don't have their heart in the rehearsals: some of them are convinced that they've seen a ghost inside the Little Circus!

The night of the final performance, our friends discover that the ghost is no ghost, but an orangutan escaped from the zoo. During the show, the monkey drags the poor Prefect's wife into a spectacular act. She's so delighted by the thrilling experience that she'll go to extreme lengths to make sure that the troupers will have their spot for next summer...
