Reminding ourselves what Easter is all about

Easter falls on Sunday 21st of April this year and is the Christian celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Did you fast or give something up for Lent? Even if you didn't, We know you'll treat yourself to a little chocolate. You might as well know what has caught our eyes. Just be careful, parts of the UK this Easter weekend could experience a warmer climate than Corfu!

Do Easter like The Durrells...

...but keep your eggs cool and away from the sun!

LOOK AWAY NOW!  
Now for a little LAD Bible click-bait.
Someone has shared a picture of a Cadbury's Creme Egg next to a 2 pence coin... and next to that is sugar. Yes, the equivalent amount inside that creme egg. 6 teaspoons. Imagine that in your next cup of tea. It's actually more than the UK's Government guidance for a child's daily allowance of sugar. But we can enjoy most things in moderation, can't we?

We get that Fabergé feel

Here are some of our favourite Easter treats this year!

Deliveroo
Dragons!

It's impossible escape knowing the final season of Game of Thrones is underway. Avoiding spoilers on the other hand... Another episode airs over Easter and Deliveroo (who deliver food to your door) are giving the option to add one of these to your basket. A spokesperson from Deliveroo has said that there are surges in sales during season premieres and finales. So this is why they've added this fantasy option to your fast-food feast.

A brief history of clowns to celebrate Andreea's birthday!

Hip hip hooray! It’s our crazy clown Andreea’s birthday! The lovable Andreea has been appearing in shows with Gandeys Circus for nearly a decade. Now Andreea is actually French – so perhaps we should say ‘bon anniversaire’! We’re proud to have Andreea as part of our current team in the big top at Butlin’s Skegness . While our other clowns – currently performing at Butlin’s Bognor Regis and Minehead – Bippo and Chico Rico are more traditional, Andreea opts to show off her sense of style with an offbeat modern look. We think her pink tutu / Converse / blazer combo is pretty iconic… especially paired with her blasting boombox! (she’s never been shy of making an entrance). Andreea likes interrupting the action with her silly routines. And you know something else… she is the UK’s only female clown! So you could say she’s a bit of an innovator when it comes to clowning around. With that in mind, let’s look at how much clowns have changed ov

Origins of the Chinese Circus

200 BC – 200 AD – Han Dynasty, Sichuan Province – Juggler with balls and knives – Carving, stone of the “Hundred Games.” [source: Chinese Acrobatics Through The Ages, p15] The origins of the Chinese circus are not entirely crystal clear. There are debates and differing opinions when it comes to the exact history behind the circus, which is not a surprise when you take into account how long it has been around! First records of the Chinese circus - including carvings and mural paintings - date back more than 2,000 years to the Warring States period (475–221 BC), with evidence of performances developing further during the Qin and Han Dynasties (221 BC - 230 AD). Although it is believed that the art may have actually started around 3,000 years ago! One theory is that the acts originated in imperial courts, with performers entertaining the houses in a manner similar to western court jesters. However, it is more likely that the circus was a folk art that was later adopted by

Strong Women in Circus

In honour of International Women's Day and the 'Women in Circus' movement, we would like to share these photos of strong women with whom we have worked - past and present. Women who inspire us here at Gandey World Class Productions , and who influence and empower other women across the world. There are many strong circus women who we have not mentioned here. Please be aware that this list is by no means definitive – there are so many more strong women whom we would have loved to include, and who remain an important part of the Gandey family. The pictures can also be found in a Flickr album here .
