WHAT’S ON

The RATS

Eeek! Giant rats have flooded the streets!

Thankfully, a flautist has come from far, far away to enchant them

with a tune and distract the crowd.

See if you can help him find them. One is cute, one‟s slow and fat,

another is deliriously happy, and the last is a big meanie.

The MR SPIN Show You may have pulled some mad BMX stunts back in the day, but did you ever graduate to a custom eight-foot zigzag unicycle? Mr Spin did. In fact, he‟ll even ride this contraption while juggling three baseball bats and balancing a glass of water on his head. Witness the raw skills of this true circus performer and vaudevillian comic.

LURK

Like an enigmatic shadow, you never quite know where you'll find Lurk.

But when you do, he'll engage you with His eccentric musings and quirky

mime. Both kids and adults will love this tragicomic clown as he makes

his way back down to the place he once called home.

The GIANT SEAGULLS

Think Freo‟s seagulls are cheeky? Wait till you see the

mischief this pair bring from the UK. Keep one eye on your chips at all times, their nosy beaks will be

rummaging where they shouldn‟t be
