Show Type: Busker
Genre: Circus, Comedy, Acrobatics, Family friendly, Improv, Cabaret
From: Switzerland/Lyttleton

All aboard. Ship-mate Paz is back, sailing the high seas, exploring the world, and entertaining from port to port with a salty, sea-faring circus show for the whole family.

Dive into nautical silliness and maritime madness as Paz juggles, jokes, and clambers his way to a breathtaking finale, balancing high above the crowd on a six metre crow’s nest. Expect clever skill, cheeky banter, and the kind of seafaring swagger that keeps audiences grinning from dock to dock.

Originally from Switzerland, Paz traded mountain peaks for ocean swells and now calls the port of Lyttelton home. When he is not sanding decks or splicing ropes, he is plotting his next intrepid voyage to bring waves of laughter to shore.

Bring the crew, find your spot, and get ready for a shipshape spectacle. The ship is about to go down, spirits up.

Our busker schedule drops in early January. Until then, you can count on seeing each artist performing at least twice a day from Friday, 23 January to Sunday, 1 February. Follow us on socials or sign up to our newsletter to stay in the loop.
