Shirt or Squirt
A pedal powered environmentally-friendly amusement

 |
A pair of megaphone wielding sideshow boffins round up participants and gather an audience to watch the competitors generate electricity by pedal power, which in turn powers the fans and pumps to make the water squirt. Different bikes are available for different sized competitors, so absolutely anybody can take part.
The Streets
A menagerie of performing street furniture, this ever increasing herd contains 2 wheelie bins, 1 portaloo, 2 planters and plants, 1 road cone, 1 skeleton and 1 Christmas tree. All of the above are radio-controlled androids capable of moving, squirting water and talking via a two way communication system.

The Hole Job (Ground based show)
…is an explosive hole digging, acrobatic adventure proving that blood is thicker than tarmac.
Road works have never before been a source of entertainment until now as our 3 circus brothers arrive to work on your street! This 40 minute show is a highflying acrobatic slapstick farce set in an everyday work scene.
Teeter board, acrobatics, clown juggling along with standing around listening to the radio and waiting for the kettle to boil are the ingredients of “The hole Job”.
The High Job (Aerial based show)
This show is spectacular, beautiful and funny as the “Charlie’s Angels” of municipal work are called in to change a light bulb. It uses triples trapeze, web rope, acrobatics, clowning, plant machinery and ends in a fireworks display to answer the age old question of how many circus performers it takes to change a light bulb.
Can be presented in 3 convenient scales, from a 15-minute aerial extract to a 45 minute full show with storyline.
