ELIZABETH-JANE BALDRY
Dartmoor-based concert harpist Elizabeth-Jane Baldry is best known for her research into Victorian Fairy Harp Music, her CD of which has received world-wide distribution. She is the only silent movie harpist in the world, performing live harp accompaniment to cinema screenings. Her compositions have been used by ITV, the BBC and by Irish, Japanese, Swedish and Canadian film, radio and television. In 2007 she gave sold-out performances in the US where she premiered her setting for harp and spoken voice of Christina Rossetti's "Goblin Market." She also makes films of British fairytales.
Elizabeth–Jane creates utterly beautiful performances filled with ethereal joy and blissful Faerie magic, her music taking the listener on a magic carpet ride across time and to the Otherworldly realms, to a place where Faerie palaces are filled with the entrancing sound of the harp’s notes and melodies. To hear and watch Elizabeth-Jane perform is to feel the realm of Faerie and all its strange and beautiful creatures close by…. Truly an artiste blessed by the Faeries!
Elizabeth-Jane is also an accomplished film-maker of enchantingly artistic faerietale films drawing upon a happy crew of dedicated professionals from film-making, television & theatrical backgrounds... & some of the UK's most brilliant and celebrated artists and craftspeople!!

Shows of circus skills, madcap comedy and wicked one-liners, with audience participation, improvisation, mayhem and a little danger!
Elfic combines elements of street entertainment and circus to create
high energy, fast paced, award-winning entertainment. Audiences go on
a roller coaster ride of fun and laughter, amazement and bewilderment.
Is he an inept, bungling buffoon or a highly skilled, talented professional?
Having performed since 1989, Elfic has a wealth of experience to produce
a very polished act; however it always remains fresh and exciting. Suitable
for all the family, his humour and tricks cross the boundary between
children and adults. “To call Elfic a childrens’ entertainer would be
to do him a huge disservice because it’s not just the kids faces that
light up when he starts to do his thing”. Elfic dresses as either a medieval
jester or in classic street entertainer mode, with pin-stripe suit and
bowler hat.
