BROCCOLI and Sprout's Environmental Clown Show came to town for fun and to spread the word about green issues at the weekend.
The clowns, who feature characters Hugh the Human Being and Mother Nature, were just one highlight of the Green Roadshow at Hartlepool on Saturday and again yesterday.
Children also had the chance to enjoy The Answer to Everything Machine entirely made out of waste and rubbish, Luke Jugglestruck, a juggling display which explains the benefits of safe energy resources and Clown Kevin and his puppet's quest for a less polluted lifestyle.
"All the performances in the circus have been specially created to encourage adults and children alike to care for the environment and to stimulate their interest in green issues," said Emma Tierney, of Hartlepool Borough Council, which booked the show. "The acts are aimed at all the family and involve audience participation and were a great couple of days out for all the family."
