CIRCUS ARTS AND SPAGHETTI CIRCUS
PRESENTS ‘JUST KIDS’ – A COLLECTIVE
CIRCUS CABARET
Not everything in life has to be a competition and that is exactly
what Spaghetti Circus and Circus Arts wanted to celebrate
when they decided to create ‘Just Kids’.
‘Just Kids’ is a collective circus cabaret showcasing the best of
the Northern Rivers youth circus talent. This lively combined
cast of 30 kids, aged 10–16 years, have been working hard all
year to perfect their impressive tricks and they can’t wait to
show them off as well as to create some group acts with their
newfound circus friends.
‘Circus Arts and Spaghetti have existed side by side in the
community over the past fi ve years and have always had a great
relationship. We decided it was time to join forces and show
the community that circus is an inclusive and supportive activity
and that kids can achieve things beyond their wildest dreams at
both schools’ said Circus Arts head trainer and co-director Tanya
Bilaniwskyj.
The show will be a fabulous feast of energetic circus
entertainment including cloudswing, triple trapeze, Spanish
web, swinging trapeze, contortion, acrobatics, teeterboard,
trampoline, chair handstand, duo silks, hula hoops and pitching.
A line-up sure to keep the audience on the edge of their seats!
Just Kids is playing at the Byron Entertainment Centre
Friday 16 December at 7pm and Saturday 17 December at
2pm and 7pm. Bookings on 6685 6566 / 6684 3038.

HOW TO DE-CLOG DRAIN PIPES – THE
EASY WAY
Don’t use guesswork when it comes to your blocked drain.
A gurgling toilet or slow sink can soon turn into an all-day
backyard exploration mission! But your plumber doesn’t have to
spend all day digging up your beautiful yard and turning it into
a messy mud pit just to fi nd the pesky problem.
There’s a better way to get your toilet fl ushing again. A special
camera and high-pressure cleaner specifi cally designed for your
pipes can save both time and money. A camera is sent down
the pipe to pinpoint the problem; the pipe is then cleaned
without digging up the pipe.
