    Seeking Florida Buskers

    Greetings,

    We are developing a Busking Program in the Miami Area. It is in partnership with a business association and the city. Yes you will be legal! We even will obtain occasional street closures.

    This program is organized by a former Street Performer, so no circle shows will be in 5 foot area, public will be educated to pay, in short it will be a good place to work.

    A test event is soon and we are developing a roster for future events.

    Send your promo kit to- allstarcircus@earthlink.net

    Only highly professional acts will be considered!

    We are seeking, circle acts, balloon artists, face painters, stilt walkers, and table magicians at this time.

    Please do not follow up as we will contact you when we have a spot for you.

            This event will be in Coconut Grove. We expect it will lead to a regular/ongoing busking program in the fall/winter of 2010/2011. We also are negotiating a with other areas and cities so more buskers will have winter work with us here in South Florida. We'll keep you posted. That is why we are assembling a list in advance.

            Rebuilding the website but find us at:



            Thanks.

              "so no circle shows will be in 5 foot area,"


              "We are seeking, circle acts, balloon artists, face painters, stilt walkers, and table magicians at this time."

              how can you have no circle acts and be seeking circle acts?

                    Sir Nickolas. It seems to me, that since the organizer is a busker, he's not giving circle acts 5 sq feet to work with; but rather a proper huge area for said circle acts.

                        Greetings all.

                        There were some issues with the organizers and the city and we had to hold off as we did not want to confirm with anyone until we were sure it was going to happen. However the permit for street closure was just approved and we are going to have the event! The streets will be closed from 9PM-midnight July 2nd and 11AM-6PM July 3rd.

                        We do have a few spots still open. However we have no budget to fly in or provide accommodation for this event, so if you happen to be in or near Miami and want to do the gig contact us. Thanks for your interest.

                        Pre-approved buskers ONLY!! If you just show up to busk you will not be allowed to set up. Thanks.
