For this article we thought we would showcase some of the unusual speciality act ideas with you to help you plan for your next event…
Give your Guests a Ventriloquist for Light-Hearted Entertainment

Enjoy something Daring and book a Knife Throwing Act
Give your guests a real thrill with this daring and death-defying entertainment option.

Perfect for Corporate Events, why not hire a Human Statue?
Human Statues are often found in popular tourist locations and will remain very still. Occasionally when someone walks by they will startle them by moving which can be rather amusing to watch.
