Generations of Talent
5th generation Ashton, Jan Ashton-Rodriguez and her husband, internationally acclaimed (former) Spanish Circus star, Brasil (Serifin) Sanchez-Rodriguez, opened Circus Xsaiva in 2001. They then went on to open Ashton Entertainment in 2010. This is their extension of the family tradition they were born and bred into.
Jan and Brasil’s youngest daughter, Chantel Ashton-Rodriguez started running the family business in 2017, specialising in Circus Productions, Circus Arts, Tour Management and Large Scale Corporate Events.
Let us entertain you
Today Ashton Entertainment is a modern, confident company of artists and technicians who appreciate the traditions of Circus Arts and the legacy of our ancestors, but are ever mindful of the need to provide contemporary, cutting-edge entertainment to our audiences of all ages. Our acts blend the traditions and expertise of our heritage with the technology of the 21st century, to provide fascinating entertainment.
We have travelled all over our country to reach regional communities around Australia that have loved and inspired our family of performers for over a century. With each performance, we create lifelong and special memories in every town and city we visit.
The circus is an environment where many generations of people from all different backgrounds and all over the world can come together with the shared goal of creating a unique experience for the audience. Ashton Entertainment provides a platform associated with spectacular circus performances combined with the principles that have fostered circus throughout history.
