Where to plan BigBugs performance?
BIG BUGS performance should be planned at the spot where the most audience is expected (for example, at the main city square).
The show can also be planned at different locations during 1 day but there has to be enough time between the shows for build-up, break-down and transfer.
Regarding terrain: thanks to our ‘all-terrain’ wheels, we can move on (almost) any terrain, inclusive grass.
For which occasions is the show suitable?
Big Bugs are very much at home at street theatre festivals; City Festivals; Puppet festivals; Music/dance festivals; Park Festivals; Environmental events.
You will spot them in the middle of a city square; around a castle; in a busy shopping mall, at the zoo…
Is there a limitation to the size of the audience?
The show works great both at small and large-scale festivals & events. The show is suitable for a large audience. It can be watched by up to 1000+ spectators.
What is the audience profile / age group?
The show is suitable for the whole family; children of all ages are welcome. The show is suitable for a broad audience, young and old, regardless of age, gender and cultural background.
