So very pleased I hired Flipping Fools. They were very professional and very prepared. They got in touch before the event and figured out exactly what we needed. They were lovely with our guests, fun, colorful and perfect for the event.
Flipping Fools were fantastic! They were very professional, they needed little guidance and engaged with my guests. This is one entertainer you do not want to pass up. Phenomenal!
Laura and Diane were the utmost professionals for our event! Both were very flexible, literally and figuratively, when our beach party event was moved indoors. Calm, cool, and collected and incredibly entertaining. They completely won our group over! Great job, ladies!!
Thank you both so much. The entertainment was wonderful!
These ladies were so wonderful! They put on a great show. Everyone was entertained. They were so professionals and went above and beyond what we expected. Would definitely recommend them for any event.
Diane and her companion were hired to provide entertainment for our corporate client-appreciation party on the evening of January 18, 2013, for a total of 3 performances, including a "black light/neon" and fire performance. Although this was a "tough" crowd, the feedback was nothing less than superb! As the organizer of this event, they made ME look good in the eyes of our clients.

Stilts: Our professional stiltwalkers always put in that extra effort to look great and provide amazing fun for your guests. Your guests can enjoy interacting with us as we mingle through the crowd or taking pictures with us at photo-ops. We've even been known to help with limbo or get down on the dance floor!
Aerials: Hiring an aerialist can be a huge logistic decision, and we work to make that process go as smoothly as possible. If your event venue has a secure rigging point, then one of our performers may be able to scout out the area ahead of time to know what is needed. If not, then we will arrive early to your event to set up our portable rig (please see our space requirements under "Technical Info"). With practice, the Fools have winnowed this process down to under thirty minutes, after which they will magically transform into the fascinating, effortless performers that your guests will love to see! Performances can be booked within your event time frame as a number of 3-5 minute choreographed routines, or as a number of longer, ambient sets. Our aerialists also enjoy character interactions with guests while they're on the ground! At the end of the event, our performers will take down our rigging and reset their section of the event venue.
Other: If you are looking for a combination of entertainer types, or if you have other event ideas, please let us know! We approach all of the requests we receive with the same level of professionalism in order to tailor our performances to the atmosphere of our client's event!
Despite their wildly varying characters that range from alluring to zany, our performers are all consistent professionals in their areas of expertise. Since 2012 when Diane and Laura teamed up, we have worked together to make every single performance as absolutely stunning as it can be. We work hard perfecting our skills, routines, and costumes to make sure we are the best fit for your event!!!
Like so many other creative individuals, we also have a lot of fun trying new things! Please feel free to reach out to us if you have any questions or ideas - we would love the opportunity to work with you to create the amazing and unique event of your dreams.
Stilts: Our stilt performers need a location out of the view of guests where they can get onto their stilts with a waist-high countertop or stool. If the event is indoors, ceilings need to be at least 8' tall in order for our stiltwalkers to stand up. Please make us aware of any ceiling fans as well!
Aerialists: Our free standing Aerial Rig has two settings. The 14' height requires a 20' x 20' area of (relatively) flat, stable ground, and the 20' height requires a 30' x 30' area. If we are instead hanging from a provided area, we need a certified rigger to inspect the point for safety. We can provide our rigger for an extra cost. Aerialists will need a safe place away from guests to get ready after setting the gear.
For any performance, we ask that you notify us ahead of time if we need to provide our own audio equipment. Any lighting needed must be provided by the Client. Please note that any outdoor night events require lighting for safety.
