The Washingtonian Magazine throws its annual "Best of Washington" party at the National Building Museum.

On July 11th, the Washingtonian Magazine threw its annual "Best of Washington" party at the National Building Museum.  We were invited to create a "Pink Lady" greeter to stand at the end of a vibrant pink carpet.  Our new costume artist, Kenann, whipped up the dress to match the carpet, with some help from our stellar intern, Nicole, not to mention Kim and Bob and voila!  A classy way to say "Welcome to the party!"  Photos by Rodney Bailey for the Washingtonian Magazine

"Newspaper Man" wows guests at Newseum

Ever hear of a statue getting a standing ovation? It happened recently at Washington's most interactive museum, The Newseum! Our living statue was covered in newsprint, and posed reading a newspaper absolutely still. He would surprise passersby by suddenly putting down the paper, and waving, or tipping his hat. When his time on the pedestal was done, and he came down from his perch, he was very suprised to see all the guests standing and applauding for him. Thanks to Kelley Gillespie, of CSI-DC, our client, and kudos to our performer,Tim, our costumer, Anne Gorman, and the photographer, Jack Hartzman of Washington Talent Photography and Video.

Teamwork really pays off!

"It's a tough job, but..."

Poor Pam! She had to work last night, and couldn't be home watching "American Idol." But she didn't seem to mind the sacrifice, for some reason!

The event was a corporate gathering at The Four Seasons Hotel in Washington, DC. Pam had a wonderful time, obviously, but it wasn't just the fabulous talent. She said that the staff at the Four Seasons was exceptionally outstanding. Kudos to a great team led by Jenelle Lombardo, who made the whole experience a total pleasure.

Our performers entertained the guests during cocktails with a cirque style ribbon dancer and stiltwalker. During dinner, and between courses, the acrobats wowed the audience, as did as our snazzy poi dancers, using led lights and hoops, and a lovely contortionist. Yes, our work does have its rewards!
