Hi Susan!


Thank you so much for your inquiry. 


We are very excited to work with you Sept 16, 2023 6 pm - 8 pm at Stone Ridge Creek's Venetian Carnival.  


Menu of Entertainment Options


Circus looks: Here we are for employee appreciation during lunches at Kaiser last week. I'm the stilt walker in the first photo. : ) Our clown is here on stilts - he is super fun for walkabout and shows - he pairs well with our accomplished juggler.

  _______________________
For your event, I recommend our clown and 1 or 2 jugglers as walkabout to be dressed as Venetian Jesters - to do silliness, clowning/miming and to juggle, unicycle and entertain

Special Rate: $500 / first hour and $100 each additional half hour

We can create the cotumes very much like shown here, but I'd use white face make up so they'd be more expressive & approachable.

This artist is an accomplished dancer and may be available with a dance partner to offer an adagio dance act: 

​

Duet: See adagio dance video to the right. She has a lovely dance partner and they create acts demonstrating: beauty, strength and grace.

Costumes
* We can go big with the Venetian Carnival theme

​

For the Venetian Carnival - I have the Triangle and the Lollipop available to you. They can each offer their act twice for maximum affect. An act is a choreographed piece to a song that the artist supplies. We can offer amplification & speaker if that is needed.
Aerialist rates- includes 20 min. set up and take down of apparatus, beautiful costumes, apparatus, and 2 goes of their act. - $1700 

(I'm thinking the lollipop in the dinner area where the ceiling peaks & the triangle on the stage or centered near the entrance of the ballroom. )

Up to 2 or 3 lollipop lyras are also possible.

Lollipop Lyra with 2 stilt walkers, LED wings, on the 14 ft. setting.  Of note here... this is at Smoke an amazing venue in SF. The ceilings are really tall and atrium like - however there was no lighting placed on the aerialist - that can make a dramatic difference. Compare to the photo below which has lighting.

The photo above is not our group - but we would enjoy creating something like this if you're into it : )
I think that your large scale venue warrants some larger-than-life ideas - the giant ribbons are great or this LED type of outfit could really shine. Wings are great - we have used them often and so we would be open to create new things. We have a giraffe and a zebra 4-legged stilt creatures in the works now.

We offer Devine (grape vine) characters

 LED walkabout LED buugeng
Buugeng
A cross between juggling and martial arts, the LED buugeng is a specialty act that we offer. It can also be an interesting walkabout entertainment. He manipulates other props also and can alternate between them.  

Their style is ideal for Venetian Carnival - mysterious! Same rate as stilt walker. Add $200 for a stage act.

This buugeng act was at the wedding reception to open for the aerialist cube over the pool act: 
Ground Entertainers
Almost all of our ground entertainers are also stilt walkers. 
They can multi-task: greet guests, then some can come down and be walkabout ground entertainment. 
LED prop manipulation is possible on and off stilts - depends on the costume. 

LED Walkabout
$500 / 1 hour per entertainer, $600 / 1.5 hours

The entertainers come with a variety of props to keep it exciting.

LED hospitality options are available too. We offer 2 LED tray tables. 2 Fantastic LED full outfits / dancers. See instagram for some recent posts @circus.modern

Cyr Wheel or Chairs Hand Balance Act

Cyr Wheel + Dragon Staff or Rope Dart (flow arts) or whips.
​

Always a stunning piece - the cyr wheel artist can also offer LED dragon staff, LED juggling clubs, or other flow props. He can also do whips and simple club juggling. Great for walkabout & cyr act or flow prop act.
He can be paired with the buugeng artist too - potentially we could offer the buugeng artist and dragon staff act together. 

They could be flanked by the stilt walkers even. 
Here is that look at a school assembly:

Chair Hand Balancing 

7 mins of wow with escalating balancing on chairs.
Super skilled entertainer with a well-honed act.

He has been a highlight of many traveling circuses.

You Tube Short:
https://youtube.com/shorts/TZ7kzu4c6P4?feature=share

A 7 min act $2000

Hand Balance Act + Knife Juggling

He also offers a 30 min act with Knives juggling and hand balancing on chairs. $3000


If you wanted a few performances plus walkabout club juggling or ringmaster character (he's fantastic) I can certainly discuss this with him. 
I offer 1 chair hand balance artist currently. And one female hand balance artist who is in the giant bubble on the pool here. Her rates are the same as the aerialists, add $200 for her travel to Pleasanton.
