Voodoo Halloween
Client: Private Client
Audience: 100 guests
The brief:
We welcomed guests into an underground world of voodoo, magic and witchcraft. They entered the venue through a secret entrance and discovered an immersive world of live performances, as the storyline of a crooked cartel leader meeting the Voodoo High Priestess unfolded around them.
Challenges:
The finale of the show saw the cartel leader suspended in mid air, as the Voodoo High Priestess levitated in a trance, determining his fate. Creating this illusion meant using the latest in flying and suspension technology. It was put to a background of intense sound effects and live video projections.
Working closely with the client and production company, we handpicked a cast and crew of high end specialist performers and actors, stooges, scriptwriters, costume designers and body painters, rehearsing in 2 different venues before bringing the whole performance together onsite – combining just the right amount of entertainment, theatre, spectacle and surprise to keep the client’s guests on their toes all evening.
