Safety:
Fire Gypsy Productions follows the highest safety standards and protocols for performing with fire. Fire performance should look dangerous, not be dangerous.
Sasha has specific liability insurance through Specialty Insurance Agency. This liability insurance covers up to $3,000,000 including damage to property, bodily injuries, medical expenses, etc. Sasha can also acquire a specific certificate of insurance for a venue. Please give 48 hours notice of request to process through Specialty Insurance.
Sasha uses a double bucket fueling station which ensures a safe and foolproof fuel dump. Sasha only uses fuels safe and appropriate for fire performing. All fuels are clean burning with limited smoke and fumes. Each tool is squeezed out to reduce excess fuel. By doing this, it eliminates any fuel drip or spin off spray. Sasha thoroughly inspects each tool before each use for any flaws or loose connections, ensuring that each tool is safe to perform with.
Sasha is always accompanied by a professionally trained fire safety. The fire safety mans the fueling station, guides security through protocols, aids in crowd control, and always has a duvetyn fire retardant blanket on hand "just in case".
Sasha can work with your local fire department to acquire any permits that may be necessary to perform at your venue.
