Hello Balloon People,

I'm in a new balloon show in London and i'd love you to come along.
 
Baby Boomers is a grown up show, using masks and Balloons, it is a poignant show about a couples loss of a child and how they cope with their situation. It follows a women with dementia as she looks back at her younger self. All set to 1950's rock and roll music this play is too painful to be sentimental yet too life enhancing to be tragic. This is a play brimming with humanity. You know it can't end happily, yet somehow it does.

"A lovely little romance that will appeal to anyone with a heart and an imagination". The Scotsman

It is also a double bill with Frank Wurzingers clown show, so you get to see two shows for the price of one.

Here is a link to the theatres website. x

Hope to see you there.

I have been asked to decorate a marquee and I would like to do a 5inch balloon spiral  swag from the the centre out to the sides. The Marquee is 9m by 3m and the height is 4m the poles to where i'm going to are 2.5m So what I need to know is a how many balloons will I need and b how much should I charge?

I've seen other people going for £15 a meter, does that sould about right?

I hate maths and this involves alot of it!

My twist n flate decided to blow up on me! So  I am in need of a new electric pump so my RSI is not a problem when twisting.. please could you give me your recommendations?  I was thinking about the balloon hero but i think it is v expensive!

Hello everyone need some advise I was thinking about selling balloons at the Edinburgh festival to earn a bit of ectra cash as Edinburgh is very expensive!

I was going to twist up there but as I am in a show that involves quite a bit I thought it was agood idea just to sell helium foil ones. wondering if anyone has done this before? any ideas of what to do? do I need a licence? how much to charge?

any comments or suggestions would be most welcome.

Our first dip into the decor world, an agent called us to help out as her regular guy dropped out last minute. So we did decor with a Balloonatic twist! The theme was mariposa barbie and pirates when I asked the very sweet 4 year old what her favourite thing was at the moment she said Sleeping BEauty! This was just before the head was due to go on, so the creation on the left is Sleeping beauty dressed up a fairy!!!

 N.B under floor heating is not good for balloons!

teaching Natalie what I learnt at twist and shout from the lovely Debbie Stevens! and Natalie modeling our creation....

With love from Natalie and Becky after an amazing gig in Cairo!

just thought i'd show how important it is to have a professional photographer! I repaired one of the bubbles on photoshop!

My first official balloon dress went into London Fashion week!
 
It was an after party fashion show called wearable art for durable people, it was a fantastic night Sarah Thomas Lane also made her first balloon dress, We were even asked to be in the fashion show! We stayed out until 4 in the morning, Debbie Stephens, my teacher in America, said the reason she loves balloon dresses was because of the reaction and that is so true! we got on the tube, dresses still wrapped up and on manequins, and the photographs started it was crazy. We loved it! Gave out every card I took with me! the dresses were no means perfect but to be honest no one cared!

Could anyone help me with this? I need to make this out of balloons, Anyone know Where to start?

Who is going to California? Anyone fancy sharing a room? Please let me know as £75 per room is quite expensive for little old me!
