Matt Zaz says, Welcome to his website & blog. Zaz has been entertaining families since he was a kid! & takes great pride in his work spreading the circus & clown Fun wherever he goes!
Roll Up Roll Up, We are now busy Touring our little Circus to schools family events & still have a few dates left free in our 2015 diary & lots of enquiries for 2016. Circus PaZaz can come to your school or family event too! We are one of the UK’s smallest touring circus’s which makes us affordable to even the smallest schools. With the help from an enthusiastic PTA our little circus experience can be at no cost to your school & can help to fundraise. We are a Little Circus with Big Fun!
We took on the tent duty’s from Fred’s flying Circus just 2 summers ago & already have had some great experiences, feedback & many schools we have visited in the past are rebooking! Here are just two recent emails from schools: “Zaz, the PTA have decided they would definitely like to repeat the circus event next summer. My 2 still talk about your circus” & “You may remember that you came & set up your little circus on our Infant School field. We are considering having a circus event again next year around May time. Are you still up and running and if so would you be interested in coming back?” Yes indeed!! Book early to avoid disappointment!

With summer now over & the Circus PaZaz bigtop packed away for winter Zaz & friends are October-April available for smaller events, birthday parties, & Christmas celebrations. Indoor children’s circus & clown shows – circus skills sessions – entertaining Christmas characters. Parents, If your planning your child’s birthday party here are some tips for a perfect party!
Back in June the BBC news came along to see the show! Our little Circus was pitched on Broadway village green in the beautiful Cotswalds. We joined the Friends of St Marys school PTA in making a school fete day for the children to remember! Our 3 circus shows helped fundraise for the school & despite the rainy weather the show went on!
Its been a great start to Summer for Zaz, now “back at work” after a little time off for the arrival of baby No2 Oliver George as he was born on St Georges day. So we dusted off & unpacked the Pazaz bigtop tent & all its equipment & hit the road. We have already visited many schools for both Saturday Fetes & fairs & during the school week teaching the children a fun & exiting circus show which they then perform after school in the bigtop for their teachers, family & friends. We spent a full week at Furley Park academy in Ashford to include almost every pupil in the school from years 1-5. The school made us very welcome during our stay & really utilised the shows to full fundraising capacity with a BBQ & showtime refreshments. We also pitched the bigtop next to the Chichester festival Theatre for Taste Artisan food festival We had a yummy time indeed & hope everybody enjoyed our shows! Next up is a special Birthday party! its 20 years since the Kidzfield within the Glasonbury festival was started. The field is probably the only place on site where parents can actually rest their eyes & relax with other parents whilst the kidz are captivated by the colour & magic of the kidzfield & the people that make it happen. Zaz is happy to be back performing in the bigtop again with the best in kidz entertainment! Click here to see the Amazing line up of things for Kidz & parents to do in the field. Heres a short film of the Famous Kidzfield red Bus making its journey to Somerset. After Glastonbury we reload & head to the next school Oakmere Primary School in Potters Bar then St Marys Primary School in Worcestershire we are very exited about this as the school are using the village green to hold their summer fete & the BBC News are coming to film a short film on Zaz & Circus PaZaz! more on that soon! See you at Glastonbury! if not enjoy watching it on the telly ;0)
Not long to go now until we hit the road for Summer 2014′ This year we start our summer season a little late in June due to the birth of Mr & Mrs Zaz’s 2nd child born on St Georges day, happy to report that both mum & baby Ollie are doing just fine. We have heard from clown Vicar Roly Bain that he is kean to offer us another Circus christening under the bigtop just like baby Zac’s last year (read about it here)
This summer we look forward to taking our little bigtop tent to schools & family events again not forgetting the fantastic Glastonbury festival Kidzfield where Zaz will be performing for the 4th year running amongst the coolest children’s entertainers, characters & cbbc presenters. We still have a few avalible dates left so if your school PTA are still looking for a great fundraising addition to the school fete be sure to get in touch quick as we may still be able to help! Look out for Circus PaZaz this summer to keep track of when & where we are visiting you can follow us on twitter or facebook
Its that time of year again….. Zaz often appears more as Elf, helping Santa get ready for Christmas. Well you could say an “Elf Clown” all the usual but with that extra festive cheer. Wherever you are, what ever your doing, We wish you & your family a happy Christmas & new year!
Our bigtop tent is now packed away for winter, its been a fantastic & challenging first season touring Circus PaZaz! looking forward to summer ’14

Inside Life – Clown Zaz
Directed & filmed by Long Sui for Brighton University MA Degree 2013.
This 20min documentary looks into the life of Matt Zaz who has been a clown since he was a child & lives in Brighton UK.
Back in April I was contacted by chinese film student Long Sui, he is here in the UK studying for his MA degree at Brighton University. Long was interested in the Clown & wanted to follow me at various gigs film & edit into a mini documentary. For his degree Long needed to use many filming techniques & created this story line based on my work as clown Zaz.
