Jay Linn Circus Arts (aka JLCA) is a specialist business providing a range circus themed activities to the leisure, marketing, entertainment, and promotional businesses. Owned and operated by Jay Linn, from his base in Leicestershire, UK, JLCA offers a wide range of services and advice on many different activities.

With a growing roster of tried and trusted artistes, JLCA aims to provide our clients with complete satisfaction. Some of the services we provide are :- 

Whilst the main aim of JLCA is to provide work for Jay and his colleagues, we are always very glad to offer help and advice to anyone who cares to ask for it. Advice is free, and we will be glad to do our best to point you in the right direction if we cannot be of service to you.

JLCA's services and personnel are suitable for a huge range of events, such as village fétes and community events, corporate outings and fundays, attractions in retail parks and centres, etc.

Over the years JLCA have represented a wide range of clients all over the UK, from individual members of the public to megabucks corporations, and all points between. Activities and events we have been hired for have been amazingly diverse, from circus skills workshops in some of the poorest districts in the country, to teaching profoundly disabled children, to hobnobbing with aristocracy - on a tight rope, of course!

Since 1989, when Jay first got hooked on street theatre, he has worked the length and breadth of the UK. In particular, Jay spent three summers in the middle of the 90s touring the Highlands of Scotland, teaching Circus Skills and bringing entertainment to some of the remotest places in Europe.

More recently, due to our association with Splats Entertainment, we have been extremely busy teaching circus skills to school children in (mostly) primary schools up and down the land - around 150 at the time of writing!

Workplaces have ranged from the sublime - stately homes and ruined castles - to the slightly more down-to-earth - grotty nightclubs and dilapidated village halls.

JLCA continues to go wherever they are asked - foreign assignments are welcomed.

Because of the extremely variable nature of the work undertaken by JLCA, and in particular the broad range of places to which we travel, all jobs are individually quoted. Other factors affecting cost include - the time of year, whether appearances are on weekdays or weekends, occasions when commissions must be passed on to the client, charges for specialist costumes or consumables, etc. etc.

As a rough guide, per appearance fees are broadly in the range of £125 to £250, and a typical full day's work within around a hundred miles or so of Leicestershire will cost about £175 to £225. In practise there is no lower (or upper!) limit to what we will charge. During the last financial year, JLCA has charged per apperance fees ranging from under £100 to over £300.
