- The PopEyed Routine
 PopEyed present a superb hand balancing act with a seriously comic bent. This routine earned them the world championship at the 2002 11th Annual Daidogei Busking and Street Performance World Cup in Shizouka Japan. Ridiculously confident, confidently ridiculous, these masters of equilibrium will have you seesawing from gasps of amazement to belly aching laughter.
- Duration: 5, 10, 15 or 20 minute stage
|
- Golden or Silver Statues
-
 Perfect as a dramatic centerpiece, these two Adonis-like statues will effortlessly move in an excruciating slow motion from one astounding pose to the next.

- The Russians Are Coming!
-
 PopEyed bring to your festival or event, a distinctly Soviet flavour: Rudi IvaKoff & Mark Verisilli, members of the International Acrobatic Display Team.
Roving through the crowd, engaging the audience with a stumbling, bumbling stream of broken English, PopEyed perform a seamless collection of skills and stunts with a nonchalance reserved for the extraordinarily skilled.
"You stand under our English, no?...Good....We show, Strretches....Strrength building techniques...we learn back home in Rrrrusia."
- Duration: 30 - 45 minutes stage or street show, Roving over a 3 hour call
