Skill Based Acts

The following are sample acts that Wise Fool can produce for your event. These acts sometimes require rigging and ground space specifications and are priced by the act or by the overall show.

Ground Acts:

MC – Ringmaster – Do you need a personable character to lead and or moderate your event? Someone who can keep audiences laughing and engaged while the scene or focus of your event shifts? Wise Fool can offer a variety of characters to host your event, from top hats and tails to the outrageous. Our characters can lead you through any event with humor, intellect and charm.

Acrobatics – Wise Fool offers a stunning array of partner based acrobatics. With balance, grace and flexibility, these artists can amaze your audiences with outstanding physical feats balanced a top of each other. Partner and group acrobatic numbers (up to 6 people) can be arranged.

Clown Antics – Wise Fool’s clowns have been known to lyrically, musically and mysteriously enchant and humor audiences. Clown numbers can be added to your performance or event and will round out the show and send everyone home with a smile on their face and a song in their step.

Juggling and Manipulation – You can choose from several different juggling acts. Some are humor-based and some push the limit physically. All entertain.

Contortion – Limited Availability One of our solo artists will amaze, inspire and stun your audiences with the concept of what is possible with the human body. Contortion is a highly specialized art where the artist manipulates the body beyond what most people think is humanly possible to create amazing visuals and artistry.

Fire Set – Limited Availability We have a variety of Fire Acts for you to choose from. One is swinging Poi which is two short chains with small balls of fire on the end of them that one or many performers dance with and create beautiful patterns of light. Another is Fire Fans which are just as they sound two fire performers dance and sway with these unique fans on fire. The third is our beautiful fire Hat. This is a metal sculpture that straps onto a stilt performers head and is lit with fire. This fire performer makes quite an impression dancing around with giant white wings.

Aerials:

Double Trapeze – We have an assortment of double Trapeze acts. This is an act where two aerial artists use a single trapeze and each other to move effortlessly through the air. This act can be commissioned to fit style and theme of your event.

Aerial Silk Routine - On long flowing 20' silks, multiple aerialists climb and drop and catch and twist themselves into knots in this graceful and stunning aerial display. Where does one artist's body end and another's begin? Aerial silks are popular world wide with their eye catching and enchanting presence.

Solo Lyra – This is a beautiful and lyrical piece on a single silver hoop. This aerialist glides around her apparatus with an ease and grace that leaves you breathless. Spinning in circles that catch the light and move with the sounds that will surround you.

Acrobats on Stilts - In a high energy display of athleticism, grace and artistry, multiple stilt-walkers bound to your stage in their signature mix of acrobatics and dance from as a high as 9' to down on the ground. This act can even be adapted to include high flying aerial feats.
