Christmas choirs and carol singers


As the Christmas period is firmly upon us we have been providing a number of choirs to sing carols and Christmas songs at a variety of events from the company get-together to private parties. Our lovely singers have been extremely popular and for some events they have been dressed in Victorian costume to add even more of a festive feeling.

Summer Barbecue in Central London


We provided entertainment for a wonderful summer barbecue in Central London at our cliet's office on their massive roof terrace. The evening had a 60's theme and as well as the incoreigible Cosmic Sausages who serenaded the guests throughout the evening to much mirth, we also had green screen photographers. This is a great way to have fun with the guests as they were all using our props and dressing up clothes and you can fit more people in rather than just 2 or 3 in a photobooth. The prints can be branded with a logo or in this case we added in backgrounds so that the prints can be made into a calendar at a later date. It was perfect entertainment for corporate parties, birthdays, weddings or whatever you want to celebrate

Spencer House Events



Our entertainers regularly appear at Spencer House in London a truly stunning 18th Century Palace that has been totally renovated to its former glory and is situated in the centre of London overlooking Green Park. It's a great venue for receptions especially on a warm summer's evening when guests can stroll out onto the terrace overlooking the gardens. We usually provide classical string quartets and harpists mixed in with mellow jazz bands that are perfect at creating atmosphere for our client's events

Schrodinger's Cat Tuesday 12th October

.


We were delighted to be asked to provide entertainment for the President's Reception for the Chartered Institute of Taxation in the Earth Galleries at The Natural History Museum. The President wanted a 'science' themed event based around quantum physics and in particular the Schrodinger's Cat experiment where the theory goes that an animate object can be alive and dead at the same time. Schrodinger's hypothetic 'experiment' stated that you put a cat in a box with some radio active material and a bottle of cyanide and if one atom from the radio active material were to leak it would break the bottle of cyanide and the cat would be killed.
This was a testing request from a client to re-enact the theoretical experiment in front of the guests but this we did with the use of an actor playing schrodinger a funny, yet imformative script and the help of a few props including a 'Bagpuss' for the cat. We also provided stilt walking aliens, Arbie a very helpful robotic waiter, a jazz band and three wonderful caracaturists
