Before
A short call to understand the room: who's there, what the event is for, and anything worth knowing. Everything else is taken care of.

Questions worth asking.
Can it work for a large audience?
Yes. Close-up suits receptions of any size, and the stage show works from a boardroom to a ballroom. It needs a microphone and a spot the room can see.
Can you tailor it to our company?
Yes. Your brand, product or event theme can be woven into a routine, or built into a sealed prediction revealed on the night.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Shane holds public liability insurance, and the certificate is available on request for your venue.
Do you perform across London?
Yes. Anywhere inside the M25 is included, from private dining rooms to full venues. Further afield is fine too, with a simple travel fee agreed up front.
Will anyone be put on the spot?
That's the thing I work hardest to avoid. Volunteers are willing, and the people who join in come away looking good. The fun is in the impossible, not at anyone's expense.
How far ahead should we book?
As early as you can. December and the summer tend to fill months ahead. If your date is closer, ask anyway: shorter notice is sometimes possible.
