Hobbledown Heath's Pumpkin Patch comes alive with roaming characters, family entertainment, games and atmospheric Pumpkin Nights. Our Pumpkin Entertainers create that energy. This is a varied outdoor performance role: you might lead a game, deliver a short scripted moment, pose for photographs and improvise with families in the same shift, while keeping every interaction warm, inclusive and in character.

• Bring autumnal and pumpkin-themed characters to life through roaming interactions, short scenes, storytelling, games and event announcements.
• Draw in children and adults, lead audience participation and adapt your pace, volume and performance style to different ages and group sizes.
• Improvise personalised moments and photo interactions while maintaining character, protecting the story and respecting guest boundaries.
• Learn and repeat set material consistently, respond to timings and cues, and work closely with hosts, fellow performers and the operations team.
• Look after costumes and props, move safely through busy outdoor spaces, and maintain energy and performance quality across repeated sets and Pumpkin Nights.

• A confident, expressive performer who can command attention while remaining welcoming and reassuring for younger guests.
• Strong storytelling, improvisation, comic timing and audience awareness, with the ability to think quickly when plans or crowds change.
• A clear speaking voice and the confidence to lead, direct and energise groups warmly but firmly.
• Energy, stamina, reliability and genuine team spirit for an active outdoor role with varied daytime and evening performances.

Experience in theatre, am-dram, pantomime, children's entertainment, presenting, teaching or tour guiding all translates well. Singing, dance, circus, puppetry, magic, bubble performance or musical skills are a bonus, but strong character work and guest connection matter most.
