Street Performers Showcase

Archived show

This show is from a previous year's festival

Our annual showcase of the UK’s finest street performers returns to its regular home, destroying the dappled serenity of the Woodland Pathway.

Pete Dobbing brings a unique blend of interactive street-theatre, comedy, circus and his unmissable game show with giveaways and prizes.

Bring a rug, a camping chair or simply stretch back on the grass and enjoy the spectacle. ‘The-Show-Must-Go-On’ whatever the weather – so come prepared with sunscreen and an umbrella!

The Performers

Gareth Jones
Gasp and gape in amazement as Gareth Jones twists the classic escapologist routine into a modern day feast for the eyes. A true spectacle of epic proportions, this death defying act should not under any circumstances be attempted at home.

Herbie Treehead
His absurd street-comedy has taken him to 45 countries. Unhindered by reality, he’s a cult figure of the Edinburgh Fringe, a self styled ‘Successful Failure’ of TV and a Glastonbury Festival institution.

Pete Dobbing
Your host is a ladder-balancing danger-comedian as seen from Abu Dhabi to the QE2 and a relentless Machynlleth fixture since the very beginning.
