This Red Deer stilt walker was great addition to to the Red Deer Festival of Trees event and can made a BIG impression. Just check out the photo below of Safire performing for the Red Deer Festival of Trees Cirque Du Noel Gala. The awesome Chris Visser was also providing roving magic and balloon twisting for the event.
When a photo was requested it was suggested “why don’t you pose by those trees.” It seemed like a great idea, what an excellent background for the photo… except… do you see any trees? Nope. With her massive height, huge skirt, and epic wing span Safire the stilt walker managed to completely dwarf out the Christmas trees.
This friday Safire Entertainment provided custom Fire and Ice Entertainment for the Medicine Hat Chamber of Commerce Business Awards. We provided a range of entertainment for the awards ceremony which included a roving contortionist, an Ice Queen stilt walker, an LED ball juggler and a group fire show with four fire dancers. Ice themed costuming was produced and provided by Safire at the request of the client to match their nights theme of ‘Fire and Ice’. Please feel free to contact us for custom entertainment to match your events theme.
This past Saturday evening was Mercury Opera’s Calgary production of Fiamma! and the event went off with a bang! This year Safire Entertainment provided a four person troupe fire show as well as our Fire Bird stilt walker. This year’s event was held at the beautiful Old City Hall which was the perfect backdrop and set for three amazing opera singer’s who sung from high up in the balcony.
“It was a cornucopia of art and performance; a whimsical feast of culture for the senses, explosive vocal virtuosity combined with fiery spectacle designed to take away the autumn chill and heat up Downtown Calgary’s urban landscape. We were the first to see the unveiling of MOCA’s fall programming- beginning with Made in Calgary: 1980s Part 2 as well as installations by famed Max Streicher and Dave Dyment in the hippest pop-culture event of fall 2013.” – Mercury Opera

So I spent the weekend performing Beerfest hula hoop roving for the guests and had an absolute BLAST! It was a super fun event and of course all the guests were all in “high spirits”.
Even though they had booked out the Shaw Conference Center the event was absolutely PACKED! It was a bit of a challenge to perform with so many people around but it turned out that people were eager to figure out “what is this girl doing with a hula hoop?!?” and so people would step aside and create a circle of space for me to perform. There were also bands playing all night, which made for some excellent music to hoop to! When I was first booked for this gig I thought “Well, I guess I now have the PERFECT excuse to buy a beer stein girl’s costume!” That’s something I love about being an entertainer is you get the excuse to own a lot of ridiculous clothing.
Some of the highlights from the night include running into an old friend from Fort McMurray! I hadn’t seen Joey in YEARS! I remember going to punk shows 15 years ago and rocking out his band, it makes me happy to hear he’s still making music. Other highlights from the night include, watching drunk people try to hula hoop, “blowing people’s minds” and being offered a drink every two seconds. Naturally I can’t drink while I’m working and in actuality if I’d said ‘yes’ each time… I wouldn’t have made it through even ONE of my roving sets before I would have hit the floor. 😉
