Eckie's 5-Star Entertainment.
Professionally arranged shows
Eckie's traditional slapstick shows have been carefully arranged and practiced over many years of performing for audiences all over the world. As one of the few remaining Music Hall or Variety acts who is still offering live slapstick comedy shows. His unique productions are like classic cartoons and his performances are enjoyed over and over again.
No need for language
His character mime skills make Eckie a perfect choice for performances anywhere in the world. Since 1989, he's performed in the UK, Europe, Scandinavia, US A, The Middle East, India, China & all over S/East Asia.
A Unique act - More than just a Clown!
He is in a class of his own. No one does what this cheeky chap can do. Expect the unexpected from this most genteel of whimsical characters. This slow old man never seems to get it right. If you don't cry with laughter, you will probably cry because you feel sorry for him.
Age doesn't matter
Whether children are young or old - the routines always have something to keep their attention and create hilarious fun. "Don't forget the adults enjoy the shows too"!

Quote Facebook, 27/11/2021 Scott Preston
I have watched the smiles and heard the cackling laughter of some of the underprivileged children you have given so much joy to Eckie. It was a joy to see (and film) and something they will remember forever. Cheers to you man - you are a legend.

COMENDATIONS
The British Ambassador in Thailand, His Excellency Mr. Brian Davidson honoured Eckie's Charity, the Gift of Happiness Foundation with this wonderful appraisal. (Pictured Right) An Unusual commendation from His Excellency Mr. Quinton Quayle, past British Ambassador Thailand. Quote Eckie Clown Knows Interesting Entertainment His Excellency Mr. William Paterson, Australian Ambassador, Bangkok. Eckie - A true professional Eckie is a master of his trade, but has in particular impressed me with his empathy and capacity to engage disabled and disadvantaged kids in Thailand, having them rocking with laughter and totally immersed in his presentations. Although this is all about fun, it was quite moving to see him draw these children out and get them to participate. His modest and self-deprecating manner is appealing and his range of tricks is wide and varied and accomplished with expertise. Clearly, he could relate to any audience. Overall, a polished performer, and a lot of fun both for children and their parents. |

Eckie - Giving the Simple Gift of Happiness
Since he became a resident in Thailand in 2000, Eckie has been busy finding ways to offer a simple gift of happiness to as many poor people as possible in his adopted country. By the year 2005 he had gathered a small group of friends, and together they managed to raise enough money to start the long drawn-out background checks and legal proceedings which eventually lead to the establishment of a properly registered charitable foundation in Thailand. Full charitable status for the Gift of Happiness Foundation was granted by the Royal Thai Government on the 15th December 2009. Full membership of the League of Foundations of Thailand was granted in March 2010. Foundation Registration number: K T 1914. Tax I.D : 0-9930-00092-26-1 |
Interesting fact...
What a Clown does is as wide as a church door or as delicate as a rose.
The right or wrong move - too many or too few - their placement or emphasis can determine whether it’s a total dud or fall down funny...The difference between a delicate glow-worm and lightning!
Eckie has the experience to deliver the perfect moves at the right time and in the right place, every time he performs.
"Be sure to have him at your next big event!"
