If
you need professional work for a performance or event we have a
gifted and highly skilled make-up artist whose creative work will add flair to
your event.
Stilt Walking Workshops
We have experienced teachers and many sets of short stilts
perfect for teaching children and adult beginners. We can also teach
people wanting to use tall stilts. (You would need to provide your own
stilts or we can custom make them for you if required).
So your workshop runs smoothly, the following points should
be noted:
Children need comfortable shoes and socks
Organisers of the event need to arrange the following:
A tall bench, about 1 metre high, to hold on to for
learners to
walk around.
A Bench, about 75cm high, to sit on while putting on
stilts.
A flat grassed area or inside area free from people.
Minders or helpers to guide children.
A mat to learn to fall on.
We Provide
Knee pads.
Stilts (all 35cm tall).
Long poles.
Two or more experienced instructors.
Structure of the Workshop
We take the children through basic safety rules,
including how to fall safely.
Stilts are fitted individually and participants are
taught to stilt walk - initially holding a support, then progressing to pole
support and then independently.
Once everyone is confident we parade around, with the
instructors showing a few tricks.
Stage Hand Crew
We have a team of people with a vast range of experiences
in stage management and event production, having run and staffed indoor and
outdoor festivals and theatre productions.
Master of Ceremonies and Compere's
Need an MC to brighten up proceedings and help make your
event run smoothly? We have several to choose from.
Graeme
Cairns - the dryly witty and phenomenally famous former leader of the now
defunct McGillicuddy Serious Party can sometimes be cajoled into enlivening
your tawdry event with his droll and absurd repartee as either an MC or after
dinner speaker.
Renee Casserly - With years of experience both on
stage and behind a radio desk Renee brings a touch of class with a smooth and
polished performance as master of ceremonies. She is also available for
voice-over work for advertisements or corporate presentation. In
addition, she brings an energetic and interactive aspect to any Kids function.
