Madame Pain’s Boudoir Circus

By on April 17, 2011 in All areas, Comedy & Performers, Other attractions

Madame Pain’s Boudoir’s Circus is an immersive theatrical experience.

As you enter the world of the boudoir the performers are all about you hanging from the roof, embedded in the set and poised to unfurl the story of Madame Pain before your eyes. Acrobats emerge out of the dark, twisting, dropping and flipping into the space. You will be swept along by the continuous action and live music. The band drives the show with an explosive, electro gypsy beat.

Born and created by Director Alex Frith, Madame Pain is performed by a blend of seasoned professionals at Aircraft Circus in London, based at The Hangar Arts Trust.

Madame Pain, aka Chrisalys is a show and brand in himself, performing with Alice Cooper. Chrisalys’ freak show are both shocking and theatrical. This mix takes the real ‘pain’ act elements of the show to the mainstream with gasps and winces galore.

AirCraft Circus is a fast moving, fluid circus company that is developing new shows and delivering top quality training to the circus community all over the UK.

Claire O’Neill

By on April 17, 2011 in All areas, Other attractions, Site decoration

‘KaleidoAct – Underwater Mirage’ is the first deep sea inspired object/movement theatre show performed in a giant kaleidoscope.

The show fuses optical illusion, puppetry, light and shadow casting, movement and music in a kaleidoscopic vision. It is a dynamic sensory experience that plays with the viewers’ perception of space, sense of illusion and reality.

The underwater concept and design has been inspired by shapes and movement of kaleidoscopic deep sea creatures, Art Nouveau drawings of kaleidoscopic
species by scientist, artist Ernst Haeckel, as well as art forms and bioluminescence found in marine environment.

Engaging spectators of all ages, KaleidoAct has a non-literal approach to
performance that celebrates the abstract beauty in motion and challenges the
traditional visual experience of the kaleidoscopic. KaleidoAct is enhanced with LIVE atmospheric electronic/noise music.

The Moulin aux Chimeres (F) artists’ collective is devoted to bringing
audiences innovative and unique experiences by interweaving performance,
design, craft and sound – accessible to all

The collective’s trademark performing equipment, a giant kaleidoscope, has
been providing a platform for open ended visual experimentation since 2002.

Hand Baked Arcade

By on January 23, 2011 in All areas, Domes, Other attractions

The Installations have been seen at many festivals and nightclubs including Glade and Glastonbury Festivals, Bloc Weekend, Boomtown and many more.

Nostalgic gaming is simply irresistible to many, bringing together strangers and helping to provide a unique, family-friendly atmosphere at your event.

Geodesic domes can be supplied and work as an excellent back projected screen. The dome is pre-programmed to change colour as well as having moving, multi-coloured laser patterns drawn on its cover. Any of the Hand Baked Arcades consoles can be connected up to this dome and all games are free to play.

Multiple domes can be supplied, from 3 to 10 metre diameter with or without a Hand Baked Arcade installation. These strong structures are perfect as alternatives to the usual boring marquees seen at many events.

The Hand Baked Arcade can provide a 12v portable arcade system. This unit enables a walk-about set up ideal for any festival or outside gathering where projecting large screen images is no longer restricted by location.

Alternatively The Hand Baked Arcade can invade any space you supply and set up a large-scale retro gaming space. So if you have a bar that needs extra entertainment, a venue that needs some visuals or a whole marquee to transform then please do get in touch.
