Clive Chandler and His Puppets

"Clive is a fantastic performer who I have seen perform many times at various different puppetry festivals. He is incredibly professional and goes the extra mile to entertain his audiences with extras while the audience are gathering for the main show (cabaret marionettes, juggling, balloon modelling etc.) and he is definitely up there with the very best Punch & Judy shows around. My son and daughter (aged 3 and 5) have been totally inspired by Clive's performance and now have their own Punch & Judy puppets that they act out their own shows with. My son has even changed his mind about his aspiration to be an astronaut and now wants to be a Punch & Judy man instead. I say good on him to choose a career that (like Clive) brings so much joy to so many people."

"Professor Chandler is quite simply one of the finest traditional punch men in the business, his attention to detail and care for his audience all adds to the appeal of his shows. A delightful show run by an experienced professional. I understand his shows are also in great demand a puppet festivals all over Europe, where he delights young and old alike - not surprised, such a kind and clever man."

"Having worked at a large outdoor museum I could always tell when Clive was performing his amazing Punch and Judy act. The enthusiastic involvement of every child in the audience together with the laughter from young and old alike could be heard all over the site. From a professional viewpoint, Clive would always time his shows so as not to interfere with my performances in the nearby school. Book him - you will not be disappointed!"

"Clive is a highly experienced performer who has brought joy to tens of thousands of children over his career which spans 30 plus years. He is the consummate professional, respectful, courteous and a master of his art. I personally know of schools who have re-booked him multiple times, such is his ability not only to entertain, but to educate growing minds with sensitivity, passion and relevance."

"Clive Chandler brings English humor and good vibes wherever he performs, especially when he brings his giant friends Punch & Judy. He offers great proximity to the show, is extremely available to visitors and offers a real moment of pleasure for young and old people. His creations are original and fun, there is no doubt that he is a talented artist. I recommend !"
