Space Commander

With over 90 minutes of original routines, Space Commander Hotch Chmarzinski (aka DAVID CASSEL), doer of stupid things and protector of the mundane, proves that he is Champion of the Unexpected. He displays a variety of superhuman abilities, sets up a superhero training academy (to set a good public example) and, in an original breath taking finale, shows his audience the actually can fly. His performances are the essence of elegant simplicity incorporating acrobatics, magic, balance, climbing, geometry and a special personable brand of audience interactivity that has come to be his trademark.

  • Duration: 90 minutes depending on situation
  • Suitable for: street, theatre, cabaret, roving and corporate events
  • Languages: English or silent

Sid and Lena

In 1971, Sid and Lena decided that the fast track to fame and fortune was to become world class entertainers. One year later, things haven't quite worked out as planned. However, when a little green bag full of gold and cash falls their way, things change... In the thirty years that elapse, Sid and Lena experience a rollercoaster of life that is triggered by an instant injection of material wealth. This comic rags to riches tale of an Australian husband and wife vaudeville team transfixed under the spell of greed and gold is densely peppered with acrobatics, balancing, political commentary, hoola hoops, sculpture, box manipulation, human jenga and other electrifying circus stunts.
