The Xanadu Entertainment Agency are very honoured to be representing a very talented couple ‘Claire’ & ‘David’ that call themselves ‘Dare’.
If you are looking for exciting acrobatic human statues then Dare is for you!!
Statues : Dare present their beautiful acrobatic statues for ambient entertainment during an event. Up on their 1m high plinth Dare are motionless, frozen into statues. Gradually they come to life and begin to move together, creating beautiful statuesque images. Demonstrating control and balance these statues have a special twist – they perform acrobatic balances. From lying on the plinth to balancing one above the other, Dare bring a special dimension to the art of human statues. Including many spectacular and breathtaking acrobatic balances, Dare perform a pre-planned set lasting up to 30mins, during which time only none of the skills are performed more than once - quite a feat!
Perfect for any event, Dare statues has entertained guests at events all over the world!
Clients include: Kensington Palace, Emirates Palace Abu Dhabi, Discovery Channel, RAF, Oxford University Ball, Phillips, Dubailand, Beautiful Generation music festival, Cadburys, Eventful, The Brewery, Dorchester Arts Festival, Glastonbury Festival, Tour de France entertainment, Axa, National Lottery and many more…...
Statue costumes :
The statue act can be performed in any of the costumes Dare have available. As well as the costumes shown below, we have several other colours and styles available to us. Dare can also have costumes specifically made for an event though the cost of these costumes will be charged to the client. Please let us know which costume you would like Dare to use in advance.
Plinth Options:
As the statues need to performed on a raised area so the guests can view them from anywhere in the performance area, Dare have their own plinth. Where a raised performance area is already available at the venue, Dare ask for a minimum surface area of 2m x 2m. However Dare can also bring their plinth along to the event and offer a choice of surrounds: (please note that we can have new surrounds made to suit a specific theme but the cost will be charged to the client).
Fees: Dare charges £900 plus an extra charge for travel costs, minimum of £50. Where accommodation is required, the client will need to provide hotel accommodation as close as possible to the venue.
Alternative acrobatic entertainment:
Featured stage act : Set to music with an Eastern feel, Dare’s act combines beautiful balances, flexibility and choreography with acrobatic flourishes, building to a spectacular finale demonstrating their superb strength, control and grace to the full. Duration: 6min
Walkabout : Dare are available for acrobatic walkabout, an ambient entertainment which allows us to mix and interact with the audience. Max of 3 x 20 mins sets. We can provide our own background music or can use the music already being played.
Requirements:
Statues - they require a smooth and flat surface on which to position our plinth. The plinth is 2m x 1 1/2m and 1m high, therefore Dare prefer a minimum height of 5m although with prior notice we can adapt our statue routine to suit a lower venue.
Corporate act - smooth, clean floor space, minimum 3m x 3m and a height of 4m.
Walkabout - by the very nature of walkabout, Dare understand that is hard for the client to guarantee a smooth, clean floor surface. However, this is not a problem as we can visually assess the area and perform moves accordingly.
Sound and lighting - all music provided by Dare will be on CD. The client will need to provide a PA system on which to play the music.
Lighting is to be provided by the client. Strobe may not be used during a performance.
Dare would prefer to have a meeting with the sound/lighting technicians prior to the performance to discuss requirements.
Changing rooms - a clean, secure and warm changing area close to the performance area is required. If Dare are performing statues, they would also request a shower as they wear full face, hand and hair make up which needs to be washed off before leaving the venue.
Additional - we would be most grateful if the client could provide food and drinks on the night!!
Dare can travel across the UK to venues including London, Birmingham, Bristol, Brighton, Oxford, Cambridge, Manchester, York, Leicester etc.
Human Statues are perfect for all sorts of corporate functions including shop openings, exhibitions, festivals, product launches, openings of Public Buildings, Colleges, Universities etc.
