Shining Light - Verena Rau

Verena will bring a light into the audience’s eyes with this new shiny costume. This delicate character with the name Shining Light draws inspiration from flower petals, ice crystals and the hooped skirt fashion of the 19th century. The crinoline (cage hooped-skirt) is decorated with LED strips and instantly grabs the attention of the guests but the rest of this elegant costume is also rich in detail.

This bright walk act can be booked as a Duo as well – together with Jenny Ochs from Mystique Fireshow.

What is a Walk Act?

A walk act or walking act is a non-choreographed, spontaneous act and could be called "living decoration".This can be many things: colourful stiltwalkers with impressive costumes; jugglers spreading a circus atmosphere; balloon artists giving away little balloon animals and many more. Unlike a show, this way of performing is more flexible, not tied to one place and perfect for spontaneous interaction with the audience. In front of individual people and groups the walk act shows some tricks, poses for photos and moves on. A big advantage is seeing the performer up close and not on a faraway stage.

Walk acts are very versatile. Here are a few ideas of how to incorporate a walk act into your event:

Greeting the guests at the start of an event and posing for photos
Fakir walk act: going from table to table in restaurants and showing the art of fire eating up close
Dancing in clubs with the Mirror Suit as a living disco ball
Walking in parades on stilts
Balloon modelling at all sorts of parties and festivals
Eyecatcher on stilts for big events to draw attention, e. g. at trade fairs, festivals
Juggling or clown walk act for a circus themed event
Stiltwalking through a christmas market, e. g. as a Snowflake or Miss Santa

And many more!

How long does a Walk Act take?

Verena's walk acts can last anything from 20 minutes to several hours, depending on how you want to incorporate the walk act into your event. These are the standard options for you:

Greeting the guests: 30 to 60 minutes at the start of an event, to greet the guests and pose for photos, for example on stilts
Several little appearances: 4 x 20 minutes throughout the day or evening
Fakir: ca. 20 to 40 minutes going from table to table so the guests can see the art of fire eating up close

The duration of any walk act can be adjusted to your event needs. Get in touch and get your customized offer. Longer appearances are possible as well, depending on the costume. Please note that after about two hours there needs to be a break.
