Farris Entertainment Balloon Twister from East Waterboro, ME

"You guys are AMAZING! I heard from so many people that you STOLE THE SHOW! The balloon creations were the best I have ever seen! I recently did a balloon twist event in the Boston area this spring and it paled in comparison to you both! You guys are 'the real deal.' Thank you again so very much for your dedication and enthusiasm. You made so many children (and adults) SO happy yesterday!" (Nancy Doyle, Southport Yacht Club, ME) BALLOON TWISTING is a terrific attraction at just about any event! Whether a birthday party, fair or festival, town celebration, school event, corporate function or promotion--Farris Entertainment (a/k/a Magic of The Steelgraves) is here to twist some FUN into your event! "They were very easy to work with! Very self-managed; they arrived on time and were promptly set-up and ready to go. I can really say they were the life of the party and without them our Family Festival Night during Children's Week would not have been the same. Both Markus and Angelique had a line of children throughout the festival (3 hours!)...we actually liked them so much, we decided to keep them for an additional hour than was originally contracted!" (Katie Van Riper, Sunday River Resort, Newry, ME--booked for four years in a row) About Us: MARKUS STEELGRAVE has been twisting balloons for over 45 years. Also a magician and (in December) Santa Claus, he's a favorite with kids of all ages and is kind of a big kid himself. Tossing in silly jokes and banter, and possibly a few quick magic tricks during the rare lull in the "balloon line", Markus keeps the pace going hilariously. It's never boring, and he's definitely not just a guy standing there cranking out balloons. :-) "Markus was amazing! He entertained the kids, made tons of balloon animals and even stayed a bit late to show my son some magic tricks." (Erin Belfort, Cape Elizabeth, ME) ANGELIQUE STEELGRAVE is the other member of the "team". Also a magician and Mrs. Claus, Angelique has a long professional background performing for children (she ran her own theatre company for over 14 years). Like Markus, she's quick-witted, has a knack for connecting with the people waiting in line, and is an accomplished twister. "Angelique was amazing! She was not only talented she was the ENTIRE package! Our residents had so much fun watching her and talking with her. Angelique was very kind, thoughtful, fun and engaged with each and EVERY one of our residents that attended our carnival at Seal Rock and we are looking forward to booking her again!!! She goes above and beyond!" (Christy Norton, Seal Rock Healthcare at Atlantic Heights, Saco, ME) Whether solo or duo, the Steelgraves will add pizzazz to your event! "Working with Markus and Angelique was a dream! They are extremely talented, pleasant and very accommodating. The Timberland Company hired them to make balloon animals for its annual Halloween Celebration attended by 300 plus children and adults. They were so welcoming to our guests with their charm and magic and truly captivated the audience--including the adults! It was great to see the joy they brought to each person who came to the event. We highly recommend the Steelgraves--they are a class act! (Andrea Renz, The Timberland Company, Stratham, NH) For most events, we have a menu of quick-to-twist designs to keep the line moving while still being impressive; other events with less time constraints we can be more creative. Rates for multi-hour events can be negotiated; let us know what you need, and we'll quote you an accurate and fair price. For large events, hire us both! We'll cover more people, more quickly, during the time frame you book. Plus, when you book US, you get US--not a subcontractor. We are the whole company. :-) Let us know how we can help you. And remember...when it comes to Balloon Twisting, inflation is a GOOD thing! Have a delightfully twisted day, and we hope to work with you soon!
