summer ’24

This coming summer is set to be another busy one for Circus Pazaz – Little circus Big Fun! we will be again visiting lots of family events & schools with our fundraising shows & have a go circus skills workshops (click here for more info for your school pta!)

clown Zaz wont be going to all of the Pazaz shows tho especially the ones further north of the country due to my own family commitments but, this does mean that I can stay more local and can still offer my outside circus stage for Zaz the clown shows have a go circus skills and more! sutible for kidz birthday parties, community playschemes, park events & family friendly festivals & carnivals…we are pleased to have already confirmed a few of our favourite summer gigs & my 2 children age 9 & 11 will again join me during summer holidays for pocket money as my special guests in the show at some of the events, including the very exciting Kidzfield’s 30th year birthday party for all those lucky children that have a Glastonbury festival ticket and we will also be back in Bognor Regis Hotham Park with our free open air clown show thanks to Bognor town council events which is always sentimental to me and those who can remember the infamous Bognor Regis Clowns Conventions which was such a colourful, exciting & funny festival back in the 1990’s & also where it all begin for me… So If you are looking for some fun outdoor or indoor clown show entertainment or have a go circus skills please enquire now to avoid disappointment before all our dates are booked in!

Summer 2022 was busy & fun again for us clowns!

This summer like many families my children & I have been to a few exciting places in search of fun in the sun during the school summer holidays & being a kidz/family entertainer often during the holidays it is fine for me to ‘bring the kids to work’ especially as since covid, my two little clowns now age 8 & 10 have been practicing their circus skills & can perform in some of the shows or help to inspire other children at circus workshops with me when they want too, for pocket money & popcorn of course! Also the big change about circus pazaz that comes with the small but complete bigtop show is that like many small businesses after the uncertain covid period we were very close to closing down completely, especially as our old but well looked after tent was now well over 20yrs old & we were aware the canvas top & walls were in need of replacing. However, we are pleased to say that Tilly Twist who has been involved for the majority since 2013 has now become joint partner! We are proud to say that we did visit all the schools that we had booked in since 2019 as well as many new schools booking in 2022 – from Eastbourne to Pontypridd this summer ’22 we set up our little bigtop show in over 30 locations! (you can read more about circus pazaz’s summer tour here)

With Tilly & the team taking the bigtop tent out it meant that I could choose not to do some of the school tour particularly during the week due to my own family commitments & also could take any smaller event jobs were the bigtop wasn’t required often more locally + for the 1st time circus pazaz could be in 2 locations at the same time ie the main tent & the small 20ft tent with open air show, which is exactly what we did as we were invited & shipped back to the channel Islands for our 6th time to supply our family entertainment for the brilliant Alderney week community festival last year’s being the 73rd held!. Took the kid’s along to the British Juggling Convention in Ramsgate, did some children’s charity visits as well as a few children’s birthday parties back in a good old hall or function room again! Zaz took the little clowns to quite a few events to either provide a playscheme circus workshop or clown show, here are a few photos of us in action! Looking forward to next summer already get in touch if you would like more info on booking us for your event!

BBC News film Clown Zaz & Circus Pazaz

Back in June the BBC news came along to see the show! Our little Circus was pitched on Broadway village green in the beautiful Cotswalds. We joined the Friends of St Marys school PTA in making a school fete day for the children to remember! Our 3 circus shows helped fundraise for the school & despite the rainy weather the show went on!

Happy 20th Birthday to the Kidzfield @ Glastonbury festival!

Its been a great start to Summer for Zaz, now “back at work” after a little time off for the arrival of baby No2 Oliver George as he was born on St Georges day. So we dusted off & unpacked the Pazaz bigtop tent & all its equipment & hit the road. We have already visited many schools for both Saturday Fetes & fairs & during the school week teaching the children a fun & exiting circus show which they then perform after school in the bigtop for their teachers, family & friends. We spent a full week at Furley Park academy in Ashford to include almost every pupil in the school from years 1-5. The school made us very welcome during our stay & really utilised the shows to full fundraising capacity with a BBQ & showtime refreshments. We also pitched the bigtop next to the Chichester festival Theatre for Taste Artisan food festival We had a yummy time indeed & hope everybody enjoyed our shows! Next up is a special Birthday party! its 20 years since the Kidzfield within the Glasonbury festival was started. The field is probably the only place on site where parents can actually rest their eyes & relax with other parents whilst the kidz are captivated by the colour & magic of the kidzfield & the people that make it happen. Zaz is happy to be back performing in the bigtop again with the best in kidz entertainment! Click here to see the Amazing line up of things for Kidz & parents to do in the field.  Heres a short film of the Famous Kidzfield red Bus making its journey to Somerset.  After Glastonbury we reload & head to the next school Oakmere Primary School in Potters Bar then St Marys Primary School in  Worcestershire we are very exited about this as the school are using the village green to hold their summer fete & the BBC News are coming to film a short film on Zaz & Circus PaZaz! more on that soon! See you at Glastonbury!                              if not enjoy watching it on the telly ;0)

Summer is finally here!

At last summer is here! Zaz & friends are all busy making the fun happen!            Circus PaZaz whilst entertaining is helping PTA’s to raise funds at many school fetes this year. We perform & teach children’s shows in our circus tent for all the families entertainment. We are also happy to be part of some great family events & festivals again this summer. Locally the Kemptown carnival was a great start to the sunshine season, Zaz did well to keep Oswald the Ostrich under control in the massive carnival crowds as he’s a lively bird!
