'Somehow by fate it fits so much because they are warriors, you can't say anything different,' she said.
A Ukrainian circus troupe will perform warrior-themed shows in tribute to their families back home.Boss Irina Archer said the show's theme was decided before the Russian invasion but was now a nod to family and friends fighting for their country.
Last year, shows were delayed as performers were conscripted into the military or had their visas frozen. "We have some of the old ones which came back from last year and we have got 50% of the new ones, but we still have 50 Ukrainians here." "Not many people have been coming forward to sponsor Ukrainians [now]. I'm already sponsoring six, so I've had to look for people who can help us again, but by the skin of our teeth we've got everyone here," she said.
