The Fabulous Singing Waiters At Your Corporate Event
We are a sneaky singing surprise act that will infiltrate your corporate event. We pretend to be waiters, guests, chefs, police, security guards, party crashers - anyone else you can dream up! We hide in plain sight until suddenly, we announce to your guests that something's up and bang...the singing starts with a full-blown performance of amazing live entertainment as we interact with your guests, the bride and the groom!

Questions & Concerns
Once you’ve decided we’re the right act for your event, you will have a dedicated event coordinator at our agency Alive Network who will be on hand to liaise with you on any issues, questions or concerns. We’ll be in touch around 4 weeks before your event to run through the details and finalise any last minute arrangements, but let us know in the meantime if you have any special requests!
What We'll Do At Your Corporate Event
Arrival, set up and soundcheckIf your party has less than 80 guests our ‘set up’ is exceptionally simple. In this case we don’t need any vocal amplification, so will just bring a small system (usually the little yet exceptionally powerful battery powered Bose system) which we will discretely set somewhere to one side of the room for playing our backing accompaniment when the performance begins… that is unless you book the four voice a cappella version of our act, in which case we don’t even need that! We will thusly officially arrive typically half an hour before your guests are due to seat for the meal so that we are ready and in place to blend with the event staff from the start of the service, however we are almost always on site (or in a coffee shop very near by) quite some time earlier since we always leave ridiculous excesses of time to journey to every venue in case of travel delays. … If your party is over 80 guests and we will be using the microphones we will usually arrive no later than half an hour before your guests are due to begin arriving so that we can sound check with the engineer before they are within earshot of the dining room, in order to maintain the surprise. The sound check usually only takes 5 or 10 minutes, but is very useful so that the sound engineer can just set the volume levels and balance between our voices and the backing accompaniment to balance to whatever the unique acoustic in your venue. If you’ve booked our sound engineer they will arrive about 60 to 90 minutes before the rest of the performers in order to get the equipment unloaded, in place and set up and ready for the sound check, otherwise we’ll ask you for the contact details of your pre-arranged technician so that we can speak to them before the day to discuss their set up and arrange to meet them for the sound check when we arrive. |
After set upAfter we’re set up, settled in and ready to go we spend a lot of time keeping out of the way because although we look like your venue’s staff we don’t want to get in the way of the real work. If you can provide a private room where we can base ourselves while not roaming the room with a bottle of wine or assisting with directions to the toilets this will help us be more focused and comfortable leading into the act for you. (We’ve found that it’s exceptionally important as a singing waiter to find out where the loos are as soon as we arrive because if we don’t we will most certainly be asked directions when we least expect it… and there’s nothing more embarrassing than bluffing and sending someone in the wrong direction!...pardon, I digress.) We will also be grateful for some soft drinks and, if at all possible a (hot?) meal to be provided for us once we’re all set up and organised. Although the performance itself is usually just 20 minutes on paper, it’s a great deal longer than that when you take into account the acting, waiting and in most cases amount of travel that we’ve done in order to bring our talents to you. Though we will of course give you our all regardless of the facilities available, it does make all the difference to be comfortable and well fed so that our focus and energy levels are at their optimum for our performance for you. |
1st live setAt the appointed moment (usually just after the main course has been served, though this is very flexible) we make an announcement that something party related or administrative is about to happen (“Please do forgive the intrusion upon your excellent event, we’ll make this quick…”), things don’t seem to go quite to plan and just when you think it’s all going to fall apart we burst into song with a huge high energy act that will put your jaw on the floor. All of a sudden the realisation that we are not in fact waiters dawns (on some faster than others) and your party is suddenly ported to a new level. You won’t believe our performers are there live, doing what we do at your very own dinner party. And no, to pre-emp the question, we are not lip syncing. We do actually make all that sound out of our little selves with consistency and charm as we dance around the room charming your guests. This lasts approximately 20 minutes, after which many of your guests will be saying, “I didn’t think I liked opera, but I loved that!”. |
2nd live set & end of the nightFor most events one 20 minute performance is perfect to give you that most striking impact and keep your guests talking in raptures for the rest of the evening, especially for a corporate events where there is a lot going on, however for events where we are your main entertainment, perhaps if you’re not planning to have a band after the dinner, we’re happy to be the feature of your evening by return for a second 20 minute set, usually during desserts after a costume change into our more natural attire (evening dresses and DJs). |
