HOW IT STARTED
From the workshop to the circus ring.
And back.
My name is Michal Novacek. I studied mechanical engineering, then JAMU – theater, art, circus. My life was heading in a completely different direction.
Then came the turning point. My grandfather, who founded and ran the company for 35 years, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. He gradually lost the ability to manage operations. The company began to decline.
I faced a decision: Either I join the company and try to save it with my mom. Or I let it go and the company dies.
I made my choice. And I brought something no one in the machine shop expected: circus.
💡
And then things escalated
Circus acrobatics was my hobby. I trained, I taught, I lived it. And suddenly it clicked: “You can weld, mill, design... and you know people who need circus equipment."
That's how ProSHOWto was created – constructions for acrobats, silks, hoops, hanging systems. Tested in the ring of the circus LeGrando.
People started writing: “Can it be rented?" That's how the rental service was created. “Can you arrange performances?" That's how the agency Kleofáš & Klotilda was founded.
Dad Vojta came up with the idea for firewood panel walls – originally for personal use. He tested them, I added variability and style. Thus were created Wooden walls.
With my parents, we started Zookoutek – a non-profit with animals, children's camps, and clubs. Mum Irena puts her heart into it.
5 projects. 1 family. Everything is connected. Everything supports each other.

"Was it worth it? Absolutely. After 13 years, I finally found a way to manage so many projects while still having time for new ones. Every product that leaves our workshop carries a piece of us. And that matters to us more than anything else."
