• The Two Men – Paparazzi: These short-sighted celebrity crazed photographers are always on the lookout for a good photo opportunity of someone rich and famous going about their daily lives… but who will they spot?
• Circii – The Pigeons: Two lovebirds follow each other around flapping and cooing. Children love chasing them. Keep an eye on your belongings – and don’t feed the Pigeons! 
• An Act Above – Norvil and Josephine: The classic notion of Vaudeville magic is turned on its head in a show full of comical twists and turns. Dazzling comedy magic with sass and a giant top hat.
• Circo Rum Ba Ba – The Whizzers: These small, unpredictable sprites perform fast gliding dances.
• Inside Out Theatre with Active Arts.
• Lily Fortune - Stilt walker.
