“If you're after a sophisticated, safe and heart warming performance don't go and see The Fire Tusk Pain Proof Circus. If, however, you're in the business for a thrill seeking, blood thirsty, fire breathing, whip cracking, head fuck of a show then go see these guys. Go now! Run!” … Bizarre Magazine.
"The Fire Tusk Pain Proof Circus rocked the Roundhouse as it brought it's grotesque burlesque freakshow to Circus Front 2007, ushered in by the most disturbing clowns outside of a Stephen King novel!" ... Circus Front, The Roundhouse
“A scorching combination of fire, freakshow and burlesque” …The Sunday Times Style Magazine
“Colourful, frightening, sometimes gruesome, entertaining but always absorbing. Lucifire and Fire Tusk Pain Proof Circus performances at Fuji Rock Festival 06 in Japan attracted large crowds with their blood shocking thrill of a show … transformed pain into a rare thing of beauty.” -Fuji Rock Festival
