Three ways in

The whole tent is yours

£1,650 + VAT. An exclusive performance for your school, up to 210 seats, staff free, your school welcomed by name from the ring, the cast out afterwards for questions.

Bring the whole school

£2,995 + VAT. Both performances on the same day, up to 420 seats.

Just bring a class (or three)

£8.50 a pupil, VAT included, minimum 20. Adults free: 1 per 6 pupils (EYFS/KS1), 1 per 10 (KS2), 1 per 3 (nurseries).

What your pupils get

  • Literacy without the reading age. Sequencing, prediction, inference and retelling from a picture book, on stage.
  • The PSHE lesson you were doing anyway. Kindness, belonging, resilience, delivered by slapstick.
  • A first live show, in their own town square.
  • A free teacher pack and a pre-visit social story.

The practical bit, sorted

Public liability certificate, risk assessment and safeguarding policy on request. Step-free, two wheelchair spaces, accessible loo. Tiered benches in the round, each class seated together. Coach set-down arranged on request. Lunch in Town Square gardens beside the tent. Copies of Clown at a schools' price with your booking. One invoice, 25% deposit confirms a buyout, per-pupil bookings invoiced whole.

Give a show away

£1,650 + VAT fills the tent with children who would never otherwise come. Buy a weekday performance and we fill it with a school or community group of your choosing, or one matched by us with our Waltham Forest partners. Your organisation thanked from the ring, in the programme and to the school, with an impact note and photography afterwards.

See you in the ring
