Our 
Story

Steve and Rachel's story began in a bog, dressed as eccentric clowns with full face paint, after a 30,000-person pagan fire festival in Edinburgh. Rachel was the director of a circus company called Te Pooka, and Steve was invited to join as one of their performers. The two quickly discovered they worked brilliantly together. After countless adventures across Europe, they relocated to New Zealand in 2011.

In 2013, their son Lewis was born, introducing a new generation of circus talent to the country. By the age of three, Lewis had already made his professional debut as a Christmas Elf, filling in when no babysitter was available. He’s been captivated by performing and entertaining crowds ever since.

Together, Steve, Rachel, and Lewis share a passion for spreading joy through their unique skills, irresistible charm, and a hearty dose of good old-fashioned silliness.
