Entertainment (Family style: clowns, face painter, balloon twister, magic, Santa)

Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.

A. We have worked at thousands of Birthday parties, Picnics, Grand Openings, Corporate Events, Special Occasions. We've even been asked to be models for figurines and art works as well as in Commercials,

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. A customer looking for entertainment at a party needs to make sure their potential entertainers are professional, both in looks and attitude, as well as insured.

Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. There are lots of entertainers who do not have the education, professionalism and/or insurance to protect the customer. The cheapest entertainer is USUALLY a very bad choice for their party. You can't buy a clunker and expect a Rolls Royce!

Q. What questions should a consumer ask to hire the right service professional?

A. How long have you been in business? How much experience do you have with performing? Do you use contracts or confirmations for each show? Do you have a website with photos? Are you insured? Do you have referrals? Can you perform for adults as well as kids at the same time?

Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?

A. We have been in business for over 30-years. We have performed for literally thousands of people and have never had a complaint. We have performed on numerous occasions at the famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. We have worked directly with a famous traveling circus. Our balloon twister has won the Gold Medal in World Competition. Our face painter was trained in part by the man who made face painting famous in the 1960's. Our Barbershop Quartet were the So-Cal Comedy Quartet Champions for 10-years.

Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?

A. HOW MUCH DO YOU CHARGE? This depends upon what act you order and how far away we have to travel.
WHAT DO YOU DO AT A SHOW? Each show is different, depending upon the crowd and area.
CAN YOU PERFORM FOR DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS? Of course! We have done shows for one-year olds, up to a lady who turned 102! Most of our audiences are a mixture of kids and adults and the adults on many occasions have said they had as much fun, if not MORE, than the kids did!
HOW DO YOUR CLOWN STICK YTHEIR NOSE ON? It's a trade secret, but boogers do come in handy sometimes!
WILL YOU GIVE US A DISCOUNT? We have a special rate for charities as well as church and/or school functions. We donate back 10% of the performed show back to the charity, or in the case of a special event, directly to that event.

Q. Do you have a favorite story from your work?

A. One of our clowns, Pretzel was working for a group of kids for a NBA event and one little boy exclaimed: "Man, Pretzel! Your feet are almost as big as Shaq's!" Our magician, Rick was doing an impromptu show in Kenya, Africa when he made coins appear behind the ear of an audience member and the crowd all began to check behind THEIR OWN ears to see if money was there!

Q. What do you wish customers knew about you or your profession?

A. Since most of our work involves comedy, it's harder to do than most people realize. To make a person laugh, requires a lot of psychology! And timing! As many before have said it: Comedy is a very serious business!
