Hey their, So I would love to earn money with diabolo performances and a streetshow. But the thing with a performance is that you can't really ask 200 euro for standing 5 minutes on the stage doing some nice tricks. So in my opinion you have to make a show...
But making a show of like 15 - 20 min with just diabolo's is realy hard I think.
But I think that I have one talent that I could combine with my diabolo's. I'm always over enthousiastic, happy and I can talk alot.. Now over some years I've done some free performances and you notice that from the first time you step on the stage till every time on you dare more. Your tricks don't fail anymore and you dare to look at the audiance and play with them. Good example is Ben's performance at last years BJC
Now I wrote an act and I was wondering if its a good idea.
It goes something like this.
- Introduction
- Breaking the ice
- My diabolo's have been ( weggegoocheld )
At this part I want to say ''okay so now I'm actualy here to give you a diabolo show. But speaking of it.. Where are they?'' At this moment I want to act like someone is saying something true my ear or behind the screens and then I say ''What? You got to be kiding me right? So.. What do I do now? oh god.. '' And I'll say to the audiance that a few hours ago I was practicing here and I went to town and left my diabolo's on stage. And that their was a ( Magician?? ) ( dutch is goochelaar ) Who did a dissapearing act with a closet. And he needed something to dissapear so he took my diabolo's! But he forgot to appear them back..
- Brining them back
Now I want to have a reall disapearing closet and show the audiance its really empty and try to bring them back. But offcourse I can't do this cozz im not Hans Klok or any good magician.
- quick course of ( goochelen )
Here I was thinking of bringing something like a tv with a laptop or a computerscreen on stage and pretent that im trying to connect with a webcam to some magician. ( this could be me dressed up on a pre made video and we have a fake confersation so it looks real ) And this person teaches me how to do it. ) And then I really let them appear back.
- Freestyle routine of 5 min containing 1, 2, vertax and maybe 3 high.
Now the way I want to use to step out the box is to talk. Talk alot..
Íf I'm done I'll post a video on here in English to see if you like the way I bring it
Now this is it in big lines. I don't care if someone steals my idea cozz I can also look to an act an steal it and use it in my regio. But tell me what you think of it. And if the idea is good. On this way I'm filling up like 15 minutes before I start doing my diabolo routine.
