Masquerade is the corporate theme that asks the least of guests and returns the most. A mask at the door is the entire costume requirement. Bravo staffs the room behind it for Dallas companies.
Most themes ask guests to commit to a costume, and a good share of the room quietly opts out. Masquerade asks for a mask. You can hand them out at the door and every guest is instantly in theme, including the executives who were never going to arrive in costume. It is the lowest friction way to make a ballroom feel like an occasion.
Elegant stilt walkers in elaborate gowns, masked dancers moving in hypnotic synchronicity, and living statues posing as part of the decor before springing to life. A classical string quartet gives it Venetian weight, a jazz ensemble makes it a lounge, and a DJ takes the later hours. Fortune tellers, fire dancers and roaming illusionists work the crowd between moments.
A string trio and two living statues suit a 100 person client reception. A full production with masked dancers, aerialists and a band suits a 600 person gala. Tell us the headcount, the venue and the budget and we will size it rather than sending a price list that ignores all three.
Living art and mystery performers | Elegant stilt walkers in elaborate gowns, masked dancers moving in hypnotic synchronicity, and living statues posing as part of the decor before springing to life.
A symphony of intrigue | A classical string quartet evoking Venetian elegance, a sultry jazz ensemble for a moody lounge atmosphere, or a DJ mixing darker beats.
Theatrical flair | Fortune tellers, fire dancers and roaming illusionists keep guests enthralled. Musicians can incorporate masked singers, period inspired ensembles or a modern twist on the classical.
Yes, and masquerade is the theme where this matters most. For much of our roster the costume is the product. Aerialists, living statues, greeters, stilt walkers, dancers and costumed beverage service can be styled to almost anything, and a mask and the right gown turn a general act into a masquerade act. It is how this theme fills out with depth instead of the same four performers everyone books.
Most corporate hosts do, and it is worth it. A basket of masks at check in means every guest is in theme within ten seconds of arrival, with no one embarrassed and no dress code enforcement. Costumed greeters handing them out sets the tone better than a sign.
It depends on how many performers are in the room, for how long, and whether the centerpiece is a string ensemble, a band or a staged dance piece. A quartet and two statues for a reception and a full gala production are different budgets entirely. Send the date, headcount and venue and we will send options at more than one price point.
Three to six months is comfortable. Living statues, aerialists and specialty costumed acts are a smaller pool than bands, so the strongest ones commit early, and holiday season tightens everything from October.
Living statues and strings need very little, roughly the footprint of a few cocktail tables each, and they work well spread through a room rather than on a stage. Aerial acts need rigging height and a certified point, which is usually the venue’s decision rather than ours. Send the venue name and we will tell you what fits there.
Yes to both. Performers, music, greeters and production come from one contract and one point of contact, which is why most of our corporate clients book it here rather than assembling vendors separately. Dallas and Fort Worth are home and we staff events across Texas and nationally, with travel reflected in what we send.
Almost all of our work is corporate, so the practical questions are the ones we are built to answer.
Send the date, the headcount and the venue and we will send acts that fit.
