\"Brochure\"Cannon and Ball are one of Britain’s all-time greatest comedy duos. Tommy and Bobby have carved their careers from decades of performances in all different types of venues. In the 1980s no-one could touch them. They had hit TV series on mainstream television, Summer Specials, Christmas Specials, everyone wanted them and still to this day are much loved and in demand. They are a favourite act for families and continue to fill theatres time and time again. They have had a whirlwind of a career and it’s not over yet. These comedy legends are a perfect fit – from the ‘retro’ style of Step Back in Time to the ‘naughty but nice’ Ooh La La.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Shaevawn Dana has worked in the industry for over a decade in some of Europe’s most famous cabarets, theatre shows and casinos. Her credits include: Moulin Rouge -Paris, Benidorm Palace Spain, Casino Du Liban Lebanon, Teatro Diogenis -Athens, Son Amar -Spain, Casino Lisboa -Portugal, The Sporting Club Monte Carlo and Chinese New Years festival – Hong Kong. Shaevawn is a beautiful and talented aerial performer.<\/p>\n

David Horvath started training as a gymnast. Then some years later he became a circus and cabaret performer. David is an accomplished hand balancing acrobat and comes to us from Hungary.<\/p>\n

Romano Frediani is one of the world’s best comedic jugglers coming to us direct from Las Vegas. Originally from Italy, Romano is from generations of circus entertainers. You can truly say that performing in front of an audience is in his blood. He started performing along side his father, Nino Frediani, who was the fastest juggler of his time. Romano’s slick style mixed with audience participation makes him one of the most entertaining new generation acts and is always a big hit and highlight of any show.<\/p>\n

Katie Shepherd studied at Performers College, Essex. She trained as a dancer, but it soon became clear that she had a special gift for singing.
