CHILDRENS ENTERTAINERS
Childhood memories are so
important.
Every parent knows the importance
Children place upon their own
birthdays.
Each birthday is a new milestone.
Traditionally
a time of celebration, birthday parties for children are a rather
special gathering. It is a time, more then ever, that mums and
dads make that extra special effort, the reward being simply that
extra special smile.
We
understand what makes a birthday party special. Our experience
shows
us there are
many different types of children. Years of doing shows every
weekend, watching other peoples shows, listening
to the children and their parents have allowed us to put together
arguably the very best in childrens entertainment.
The
most important thing we know is that children soon get bored
sitting down and watching. In our shows they are continually
taking
part,
especially the birthday person. (Though we also understand that
not all birthday boys/girls want to be the center of attention,
we take everything into account!)
Your
children's party is
our
business. We never forget that the greatest form of advertising
is by word of mouth. If we do an excellent show, you and the
children will be happy to pass our name on. We welcome repeat
business.
At FUNTIME!!!
our talented entertainers are chosen with great care and trained
in the art of childrens variety performing. Only when they
satisfy us that they can ma
intain and
improve the companies high reputation are they allowed to work
under our name, in a show we know works!
To describe the show in words, is like trying to describe
the taste of chocolate without eating it. It is best simply to
experience it to get it's full flavour, but I will try my best to
give you an idea.
First of all the whole show
starts like a pantomime with the entertainer getting everybody
cheering & in the party spirit.
We then find out who the birthday person is by
a comedy mind-reading routine that involves all the children.
We sing to the birthday person a specially
written song.... which is totally out of tune! The
childrens help is needed, so everyone sings 'Happy Birthday
To You!".
Then everything goes a little silly. The
entertainer gets everyone to drink a cup of invisible lemonade,
which of course the children have to shake by jumping to make it
really fizz! When we drink the pretend fizzy lemonade, it makes
everyone jump up & down going "Hic" and
"Burp", then children take delight in singing
"Hiccy Burpy To You!"
From there we move into the magic show, where
we've borrowed a leaf or two from Tommy Cooper, because
everything keeps going wrong! So of course we need the
children to help the magic go
right.
This is a great way to get them involved. As
well as using children for the magic tricks, the puppet Sooty and
a magic wand are handed out to the audience. Of course everyone
has to shout the magic word for the humorously performed magic to
work. There are plenty of prizes handed out to those who help
with the tricks.
The
grand finale is the puppet show with famous characters such as
Tweetie Pie, Sylvester, Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Sooty, Sweep
& Sue.
In our show the puppets are handed out to the
children, so they can even join in the puppet show holding their
TV heroes. The story of the puppet show varies with our
entertainers and occasions.
The presentation
of our shows vary with each entertainers distinct character and
particular special talents. It varies also with the audience they
are presenting the show to. Experience has taught us that the
younger age-groups (3-5) need a softer approach, the middle age
groups (5-7) need a fairly high energy approach and the older age
groups (7-10) need a quick witted and high energy approach!
Parties involving a mixed age group is a challenge to our
entertainers, because of the age groups different needs, but it
is a challenge we always rise to and win.
For age-groups over 10, we recommend a
childrens disco where a magic show and games can be
incorporated . Of course we cater for this too. (In fact we offer
exceptionally high standard
Disco,
Karaoke & Adult Cabaret for all occasions including weddings,
21st`s, officeparties etc. through our sister company SILVERSOUNDS
DISCOTHEQUES, though further
information/ bookings can be made through FUNTIME!!! Finally,
we video most of the shows through our sister company QUICK
SLICK FLICKS for optional purchase.
