What a joy it was to have your Mad Hatter as the Master of Ceremonies at our wedding, he brought calm out of chaos and laughter and joy to all involved.
His role as the “Circus Celebrant” will never be matched! . Thank you!
— Mr and Mrs P Weymouth ,
This year we celebrated ten years of A Handful of Hats providing the main focus of the family entertainment for our famous Village Fete, with the different character act you provide every year they are always a highlight of the Parade and the fun you deliver during the Circus workshop and shows have the mark of a genial genius that the villages’ benefactor Agatha Christie would have surely appreciated. Thank you so much!

Mark the date in your Diary as we truly can’t do without you!
