EE Home Presents: The Circus faces up to half term chaos

Half term is fast approaching and for many parents, school holidays can be equally as chaotic as memorable. It’s a time that can feel overwhelming for many with almost half of parents stating it’s difficult to juggle work with childcare.

Whilst many parents appreciate the opportunity the school holidays give them to create happy memories with their children, it’s also a time that sees an increase in sibling arguments (32%), endless snack re-stocking (46%) and bedtime routines going out the window (44%). For many (63%), the holidays can feel so overwhelming that they admit to hiding from their children just to get a few moments of peace and quiet.

This October half term, EE is here to help with the broadcast of EE Home Presents: The Circus, a spectacular and immersive performance that brings to life the chaos of the school holidays and shows how an EE connected home can bring calm to households across the country.

Following the live action performance which took place over the summer at HERE at Outernet, the show has been adapted for screen and is now available for all to watch on demand via EE’s YouTube Channel and will be available on EE TV from Friday 25th October. Featuring artists from Revel Puck Circus, the jaw dropping spectacle has been specially curated for young people aged 5-15 and their guardians or parents so the whole family can sit down and enjoy together.
