Technical Specifications
Below are the technical specifications for Afterdark fire and light productions. These are necessary for the safety of the artistes and the quality of the performance. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us via info@afterdarkperformers.com or +61 (0) 404 0707 63
Show Lengths & Types
Welcome your guests as they arrive with a flaming meet & greet.
Enjoy a sharp explosion of action from a solo performer.
Experience the full spectacular of a choreographed
multi artist stage show.
1 Person choreographed fire show: 8-10 minutes
2 Person choreographed fire show: 10-15 minutes
3 Person choreographed fire show: 10-20 minutes
4 Person choreographed fire show: 10-25 minutes
Roving, Meet & Greet or Atmospheric performance can be supplied in 5-10 minute sets spaced over a required duration.
Larger or custom shows can be organised
Cancellations
Any cancellations made after booking require partial or full fee.
Within 2 weeks of event date a 50% fee is required.
Within 1 week of event date a 100% fee is required.
Cancellations due to weather or other late notice circumstances will require full fee payment. Wet weather contingencies should be discussed with the artists prior to booking as space requirements will apply and show may need to be altered.
Considerations
Specialized fuel will be used that is free of soot and smoke, odourless and non toxic.
The performance area must be free of any flammable materials. Please ensure that there are no hangings, fabrics or similar decor directly above the performance space and no leads or cables running across the stage. Afterdark performers will bear no responsibility for valuables left in the performance area.
If the surface is smooth e.g. granite, tiles or parquet, it will be slippery for approximately five minutes until the fuel residue evaporates. Please account for this requirement. Ensure guests and other performers are aware. Afterdark will bear no responsibility for this hazard. Rolling out carpet for the duration of the show is a preferred solution.
Space
The below dimensions are optimum spaces for fire shows.
We have worked in many challenging spaces in the past and are generally able to adapt to available space. Please advice on any space restrictions when booking.
Solo show: Width: 4m Depth: 4m Height: 4m
Duo show: Width: 5m Depth: 5m Height: 5m
Trio show: Width: 6m Depth: 5m Height: 5m
4 person show: Width: 7m Depth: 6m Height: 5m
We require a reasonable backstage area suitable for costuming, makeup and equipment preparation.
Please advice of the stage surface when booking. If surface is smooth rolled out carpeting is preferred if available.
If any environment is judged to be unsafe or spacing specifications provided are incorrect we reserve the right to modify or cancel the show. In these instances a full fee will be charged.
Lighting
Please restrict any lighting to a soft wash in low level hues such as dark blue and purple, dark red or UV. Please avoid any orange, yellow or white lighting or backdrops.
Sound
For choreographed shows we require a powerful sound system and monitors as the artist's need to hear the musical cues above the roar of the flames. Performances can easily be adapted to events with live musicians.
Dressing room and Amenities
One large, well ventilated dressing room with access to mirror, wash basin and chairs required as close as possible and with clear access to working areas. Bottled water and if call time is longer than 2 hours, healthy snacks.
Recording devices
Advise upon booking if the event will be filmed. Permission for video and photography of the performance will in most cases be happily given upon the agreement that unedited copies of all footage and photos featuring the artistes will be delivered to Afterdark within 30 days of the performance.
Material Requirements
For interstate and international shows fuel, flights, accommodation and transport will be additional to performance quote costs.
Insurance and Permits
The artists have $20,000,000 AUD public and property liability insurance worldwide (except USA & Canada which can be arranged on request).
Any local permits necessary will be the responsibility of the hirer unless the artists agree otherwise. Within Australia fire performances are allowed at the discretion of the venue.
Fuel Requirements
For interstate and international shows agent or client must source and provide one of the following.
Please arrange fuel well in advance of performance as alternate fuels may require show modification.
