A fuming army of petrol driven
insects are in erratic pursuit of a monsterous mechanical
egg factory. Venting gooey foam along the way, this towering
structure ambles through the audience attempting to keep its
precious crop from the clutches of the marauding swarm.
"Tattoo
is a massive undertaking yet it is concerned with detail
and audience immersion. The action takes place through,
in and around them. An enveloping, pulsating soundtrack
helps to give everyone the feeling of being involved
in an adventure."
The Stage
Tattoo
uses a cast of dancers and mechanics with giant mechanical
structures, elaborate costumes and specially composed
music to create a captivating and exhilarating show.
Each of the structures and characters actually moves
through the audience, while an organic, shifting soundscape
engulfs.
The focus of attention shifts as characters
approach from all directions, parting the crowd to carry out
intricate rites akin to military manoeuvres.
The show lasts about 50 minutes.
Very light technical requirements - no big site
costs - no hidden extras!
All structures and characters
move through the audience, which is immersed in the action. Technical requirements: Tattoo has very light technical requirements.
The company is self contained and does not need much looking after!
Tattoo is designed to help keep your costs down. Basically we need
a power supply (Mains or Generator), a secure compound for our vehicles,
some stewards and 8 volunteers for the show.
