Circus Starr is the circus with a purpose, that is to raise thousands of pounds for local charities with the help of ticket sales to local businesses around Britain. Last year saw more than £744, 845 worth of tickets sold donated onto UK communities.
On Saturday 30th Oct 2010, Circus Starr will be in Nottingham and in partnership with Community Service Volunteers, the UK’s leading volunteering and training charity, will be spreading its community spirit with a circus workshop opportunity for all ages in the Nottingham area, getting them involved with CSV Make a Difference Day.
This free workshop, which starts from 12pm and only lasts for an hour, gives people the chance to meet the international acclaimed cast of Circus Starr, learn circus tricks under their watchful eyes and are looking for three lucky volunteers to get involved with the organising of this amazing event. It will be held in their Big Top at National Watersports Centre, Adbolton Lane, Holme Pierrepoint, Nottingham, NG12 2LU
Becki Wiper, Press Officer for Circus Starr said: “CSV Make A Difference Day is something that Circus Starr is very proud to be a part of. Circus Starr launched as a Social Enterprise this year and to reiterate our dedication to local communities we are excited about holding our free Circus Workshop. We are also thrilled to announce that Circus Starr is looking for 3 volunteers to be involved. This is a fantastic opportunity for any student to add something different to their CV and be recognised as a volunteer in a national event and what better way to do this than having fun at the circus. I would love to hear from any student who would like to be involved.”
The circus is a magical mix of top flight acrobatics, breathtaking balancing and non-stop comedy.
Duo Delbosg are the comedians with an infectious style of physical comedy knows no boundaries.
Argentinean Gaucho, who has been featured on the Paul O’Grady show, will entertain the audience with his famed Bolas Dance of Courage.
The Julio Troupe from Bulgaria will have the audience on edge with their astonishing and gravity defying acrobatic act.
Finally, Tracy Jones’ international acclaimed Corde Lisse act brings grace, beauty and skill which will mesmerise the audience.
