With seasoned performers Heidi Jo & Troy Moore as Gladys and Glum - The mMiddle Aged Clowns, Spectacular Silk Aerialists Angel and Elena Flanagan, Mesmerising Trapeze Acrobat Rhiannon, Balancing Extraordinaire Jay Harrison and Dean Alexander as Officer Dean Diablo - keeping us all safe!
Circus M.E.A provided an interactive area where punters were able to have a play with some of the circus toys. A special mention to Sam, who could have been mistaken as part of the show, as she displayed beautiful hoop skills from the morning through to 2:30, amid Circus M.E.A set performances!
The punters were grateful for the squirts of water as our stilt walkers and tri-cyclists worked hard (really it was a LOT of fun!) at keeping punters cool!
A big THANK YOU to Tanunda Show for having us and for all the amazing feedback!. Including this from a punter;
'I would like to congratulate your team on putting on a great day for the 111th Tanunda Fair 2025. From the moment we walked trough the gates it was a buzz of Animals, exhibits in the hall, food , stalls, oval packed with children's hands on section. One thing that stood out was in the small oval "A Circus Troupe" from MEA Australia. We have never seen anything like this at a fair. Took us back to our childhood, with what this amazing company did. A group of young people performing and all local talent. Please pass on our congratulations to MEA for a truly professional performance. Also to your committee for a job well done.'
