Shep

Shep has been on the stage for as long as he can remember. In the late 1980s and early 90s he was an acrobat, fire eater and juggler with a 3 man clown act, Circus in a Suitcase.
In the mid 90’s Shep was one of the world’s elite street performance artists, performing his unique blend of family friendly circus and sideshow on the streets and at festivals in 26 countries. Around the turn of the century Shep was a founding member and front man of The Happy Sideshow, Australia’s Premiere Freakshow.
These days Shep offers a wide range of performance options, he is one of Australia’s most amicable MCs, his street shows still wow audiences where ever he performs and his sideshow stunts are second to none, all originals, designed to shock, amaze, astound and amuse.

Street Show

Shep  - Street Show

Shep has been performing his unique blend of family friendly circus and sideshow stunts on the streets of the world since 1990.
Shep can offer two different street shows, both are tight funny crowd pleasers.
In one show Shep lies on the worlds only Bed of Forks, and has an audience member drop a bowling ball from a step ladder onto a dinner plate on his stomach. Its explosive!
In the other show Shep balances on top of a 3 meter pole and performs a comedy juggling routine.
Both shows have lots of jokes, a little whip cracking, some great yo-yo tricks and one big acrobatic stunt.
Shep incorporates what can only be described as urban clowning into his performances and his audiences often squeal with delight at his antics.
Either of these shows are perfect for any community fair, festival or event.
