This site is under construction
We are creating a new very simple site that displays a list of our 100+ acts to enable you the client to see at least one image and blurb for every act! We aim to have this simple version completed by the end of 2018. Please contact us if you need more specific information about acts suitable for your event. (So far this site contains basic info of 6 or our acts)
