For circus loving event lovelies and tortured souls alike, Come On In! we have something for everyone and guarantee you won’t be disappointed. 

Surprised? – hell, yes!
Excited? – certainly
Shocked? –we hope so
Entertained? –without doubt

All you have to decide is whether you want traditional circus, gothic circus, twisted circus, family friendly circus or Victorian horror circus themed entertainment.

So roll up, roll up to Calmer Karma’s CIRCUS extravaganza, feast your eyes on some of the most exciting  and daring circus themed entertainment you’ll ever witness in your life.  Open your eyes; release your inhibitions, and keep your ears close to the ground as we take your mind on an adventure, (a tour de circus) and expose it to all manner of deviant illusions and trickery. 

So, without further ado let’s throw open the doors to this big top and meet your Circus Ringmaster and MC for the evening…Baron Barnum Bananas

This infectious ringmaster will guide you through the evening introducing you to circus arts and wonders of the universe with just the playful tickle of his feather duster or in the crack of his whip.  But, first things first, a quick check backstage by our in-house management team to confirm all is ship shape and at the ready.

All looking spanking delicious and good enough to eat! 

And now, WELCOME TO THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH BROUGHT TO YOU BY CALMER KARMA…

Watch the magic and excitement of stunning acrobats
as they tumble from the vaults of the big top and cascade down, unraveling their beauty in front of your very eyes.
 

Marvel at the Worlds Strongest Man (well at least HE
thinks he is!) –his dwarf acrobatic assistant thinks
otherwise; as she attempts to lift his mirror balls!
This is a fun tongue in cheek duo


But, watch out because this circus has just taken another turn so come closer and see one of the greatest freaky spectacles the show has to offer you – ‘The Reject Twins’.These poor creatures were joined at the hip at birth and then one strange night began to separate.  Get up close and experience
this ugly Victorian circus attraction first hand. 

Or check out acrobatic twins act where two becomes one - double the value circus themed entertainment!
 

Moving along from circus delights to circus frights
..time for a little circus hell fire!

Staged, choreographed grinding ‘Fire Zebras’ with ‘Lord Mephisto’ on lead Fire Poi kicking some circus ass; and getting down and hell fire funky.

From twisted circus freaks to high impact circus skills.  Be prepared to be dazzled and amazed as our super seductive hoop spinning divas ‘The Hula Beavers’ spinning multiple hoops or performing the daring, visually stunning fire hoop – hooptastic!

But, keep your wits about you on this journey “Watch your backs - coming through” circus eye candy for the ladies and this young man is stopping for NO man. 

Watch with wonderment as this talented showman whisks his way effortlessly through the guests with just the gush of air and gasping and then he’s gone, gone, gone.

and now more sweet temptations, tantalising you with canapés, candy floss or popcorn; it’s the canapé hostess and candy host ‘Kiss my Lollipop’ and ‘Tipping Tophat’

MIME YOURSELF! 
One mime artist works great at a circus but this is the GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH and so it would be rude to not have an entire mime troupe.  Wouldn’t it?

To juggle or not to juggle.  What to juggle?  Fire, Crystal Ball, Batons, Balls, Hats? These are the nagging questions.  What about Cigar Boxes?  A traditional circus art now rarely seen let alone practiced. 


But what kind of a circus would it be without clowns?  A really sad one.  A crying shame.  But being Calmer Karma there’d have to be a twist now wouldn’t there.  So bring out the giant Steam Punk Circus Clowns.  Watch yourself there madam!

Circus is about excitement, surprise, fear, fun and dare devils, but it’s not just the wild and bold acts that make it an event to remember for guests.  The circus themed side acts are just as important and bring that real circus atmosphere to your event

ENTER THE BEARDED LADY!
No circus is complete without the curious sight of ‘Myra Follicle’ who has travelled the land looking for a suitable husband but so far been unlucky in love.  She’ll do her best to hide her dark secret but be prepared for a shock when she let’s her hair down.  She’s looking for love gentlemen…are you the one?  If you can love this lady for who she is, leave your mobile number with the ringmaster. Otherwise run for your life – phew that was a close shave!

And as the guests are wined and dined let’s throw in some mix and mingle circus themed table acts and give everyone something to take home to remind them of the fun of the circus (once they’ve got over the shock of the bearded lady that is) – Caricaturists, Magicians, Graphologists, and Mind Readers work a treat for this.

Or pay a visit to Count Beano’s tent to see what the crystal ball has in store for you…
 

Be careful with your step as you never know who you’ll find lying about on a Bed of Nails inviting guests to jump on.  Ouch!  Not for the feint hearted, the fragile or the easily shocked.  This act is dangerous and the nails on that wooden slab are real!  Ohh and here comes our favourite dwarf introducing you to weird creatures from far away worlds – in this case the Naycat

But hold onto your popcorn, ‘cause here comes ‘Lady Viper’ a formidable presence and no stranger to this circus.   Creep closer and touch one of the largest snakes you’ll come eye to eye contact with outside a locked glass cage in the reptile house.  This lucky snake has been kept as a pet since he was a baby and his interests include sitting on his owner’s lap of an evening chilling to Coronation Street and being the centre of attention at events.
