> Static Circus Stilts Strolling

Bell and Bullock have been producing beautifully crafted street theatre shows and stunning strolling creations since 1991. Delightful comic characters, crazy contraptions and gorgeous costumes, our portable performances can bring magic, fun and laughter to every event.
**********
Our current repertoire includes:
New for 2008:
"BELLADONNA AND HER VENUS FLY TRAPS" - Driveabout
Meet Belladonna the deadly gardener in her Venus Flytrap drawn chariot. She dispenses gardening tips whilst trying to find a tasty morsel for her hungry pets. Meanwhile a charming fly draws near and is besotted by her beauty.
Can he woo her without being eaten alive?
**********
"TIME TROUBLE" - Show.
You are cordially invited to join our two Victorian time travellers, Professor Weft and Ms. Warp, for the "Time Travel Trip of a Lifetime." See morris dancing Vikings, whip cracking Romans and Sir Isaac Newton’s gravity defying diabolo routine. Prepare for absurdly funny nonsense mongering and toothsome tomfoolery on this trawl through the annals of history.
"Whatever the time, place or weather, their yarn spinning slapstick spans the generations and will delight and entertain". " I love it!!"
Ednie Wilson, Arts Development Manager, Gateshead Council.

John Plant, Curriculum Leader, Drama, Southmoor Community School, City of Sunderland.

Join Captain Bullock and Bosun Bell for maritime mayhem, magic and mirth. Witness the Indian Club Work-Out, Navigating the Celestial Spheres and the dare-devil Dove become a bird-brained Cannon-Ball. A nautical extravaganza of eccentric experiments.

Captain Bullock rides Polly, his temperamental, permanently peckish, giant parrot, on a quest for treasure, birdseed and romance. Meanwhile Meranda the gorgeous Mermaid, in her seahorse drawn chariot, flirts with passing handsome sailors. Meet the seahorses, swim “n” dance to disco classics and learn her beauty secrets.
**********
TIME MACHINE Driveabout/Walkabout
Marvel at the incredible Time Machine, a magnificent feat of eccentric engineering. Let the bonkers boffins Warp and Weft show you their box of cosmic secrets. Hear the sound of the universe, experience the big bang, learn how long is a piece of cosmic string and what the winning lottery numbers could be!
