about us

Swamp Circus was started in a disused steel works, in Sheffield in 1986, by local acrobats, jugglers, aerial performers and other trapeze artists. It has grown into a national company with offices in Rotherham, South Yorkshire serving the North (Swamp Circus Trust) and offices in Penryn, Cornwall serving the South (Entertainers - Swamp Circus Theatre - www.swampcircus.com and Circus Training - Circo Kirnow www.circokernow.co.uk).

Swamp Circus provides quality circus entertainment (jugglers, stilt walkers, acrobats, contortionists, magicians, trapeze artists, stilt walkers, unicyclists and other circus artists) for a host of events and venues. Look in entertainment for information on our shows and acts.

We run projects that teach new skills and bring performing arts back into the community. See community for details of our work.

We also work closely with schools and use circus arts to enrich the curriculum. Check out the education section of this site for more information.

With Swamp Circus Trust you get the benefit of 21 years of experience in the entertainment industry combined with knowing you are investing in a socially responsible organisation.
