We contracted Calliope Colab with very short notice yet she arrived fully prepared! She engaged well with the kids and families in attendance and everyone was happy with her. We've already booked her for next year.

Awesome Performance!

Calliope was so entertaining from beginning to end! She made everyone’s night so memorable. Her performance as a mime was top notch, along with balloon animals and face painting. 5/5 thank you so much!

She’s so great!! The best clown ever!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️5-Star Review

We had the absolute BEST experience with our clown at my daughter’s birthday party! From the moment they arrived, the energy was through the roof and the smiles didn’t stop. The clown was funny, engaging, and so patient with all the kids—especially the birthday girl, who felt like a true star the entire time!

The performance included hilarious skits, interactive games, balloon animals, and even a little magic that had the kids (and parents!) completely entertained. The clown knew how to keep the children’s attention while making everyone laugh, and their bright costume and playful personality brought such a festive vibe to the party.

What really stood out was how thoughtful and professional the clown was—showing up on time, being super organized, and making sure every child got a moment to shine. They truly helped make it a magical and unforgettable celebration!

Highly recommend for anyone planning a children’s party—this clown is a must-have!
