Kidding Around … Silvers Circus

August 7, 2015August 7, 2015 | Kidding Around Australia

ROLL UP ROLL UP

SILVERS CIRCUS IS HEADING TO A TOWN NEAR YOU!

INCLUDING A BREATHTAKING NEW ACT – ‘ANTIPODIST’ – THE FOOT JUGGLER –

THAT WILL HAVE YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT AS SHE JUGGLES BALLS OF FIRE!

Silvers Circus is a household name in Australia and after nearly three decades on the road maintains all the sparkle, glamour and death defying acts expected of Australia’s premier circus. Silvers Circus continues to provide jaw dropping entertainment for the whole family with new locations just announced:

Wallan, Hadfield Park – never been before!19 August – 23 August
Plenty Valley, Westfield Plenty Valley, McDonalds Rd, Mill Park 26 August – 13 September

Established in 1976, Silvers Circus provides world class family entertainment and fun. With extraordinary artists continually arriving from all parts of the world, Silvers are proud of the ever changing program they are able to present.

Silvers have introduced a new act to the show this year, Antipodist which means foot juggling. Klara J not only juggles footballs, and manages to shoot a ball into a hoop she juggles fireballs, an idea developed and only performed by Klara J in this country.

The 2 hour action show, featuring Ringmaster and Master of Illusions, Simon Tait will also include:

Wheel of Steel. Two young men with nerves of Steel, Dominik Gasser and Ramon Kathriner, run, jump, skip and flip through a routine of sheer physical ordacity, just as the apparatus they challenge defies description. Its wheels osolate and revolve from group level to dizzying heights. This spectacle will leave you chewing your nails and squirming in your seats! The Wheel of Steel…. (for strong constitutions only!!)
The Globe of Death. The world famous Phoenix Riders speed around inside a 3-1/2 meter diameter metal globe on motorbikes, missing each other by mere millimetres.
Hire Wire Act. It’s electrifying. Watch as the artist uses his talents to bravely step out into thin air on a silver wire thread high above the circus arena.
Hoola Hoops. Up to 80 hoola hoops at once are managed while a balancing act is taking place upon a mobile mirror ball all at the same time
Clowns. Expect the unexpected. This act is guaranteed to tickle the funny bone
The Roman Rings. A very unique act which is performed with extreme strength and elegance. Little girls will be amazed by the beauty and grown men in awe of the control and physicality.
Illusionist. Ringmaster Simon Tait has over 25 years’ experience in circus and will mesmerise the audience with his celebrated illusions and audience report.

Kidding Around … Ice Skating at Craigieburn Central 2015

August 2, 2015August 7, 2015 | Kidding Around Australia

We were getting a little cabin fever being stuck inside on these cold wintery days so we decided to get our skates on and head to Craigieburn Central’s Real Ice Skating Rink! It was time to embrace the cold by hitting the ice!

We loved it last year (you can read about it HERE) and it is back again from Saturday 1 August to Sunday 6 September 2015.

This year, it wasn’t just Georgina and Alegría enjoying the ice. Isaac is old enough now to strap on the skates and because Tim wasn’t feeling 100% he was our official photographer!

There are penguin stabilisers that are fantastic for the children to hold onto and skate behind and the friendly staff are available to help out.

Children 5 and under are recommended to wear their own shoes with double blade clip-on skates, so make sure you take closed-toe shoes. The hire cost was included in the low entry price.

Craigieburn Central have organised a lot of family activities such as games on ice, tiny tots, learn to skate and storytime with Hume Library sessions, and on selected weekend evenings you skate under the stars and watch as the rink comes to life with an overlay of live music to delight young and old.
