杂技团出租 —— 卖的是整团、整台，不是一个节目Acrobatic Troupe for Hire — The Whole Company, Not a Single Act
一个节目，是 8–12 分钟、授权引进到别人现有演出里的一小段；一个团，是另一端的量级：演员、技术班组、器械、道具、服装一起到场，装台、排练、跑完整台。两种都能订。A single act is one item, eight to twelve minutes long, licensed into a show somebody else runs. A troupe is the other end of the scale: the artists and the technicians, the rigging, the props and the wardrobe, arriving to install, rehearse and run a complete programme.
先分清两种买法The two scales of booking
Almost every enquiry we receive is one of two things, and the answer to both is yes:
- A single act. One item — the Wheel of Death, the Globe of Death or another act from the catalogue — licensed into a show, festival programme or venue you already operate. The smallest commitment, and the fastest to programme.
- The whole troupe. The full company travels to you: a grand circus programme of more than ten acts running around 90 minutes, installed and operated by the people who built it.
The difference is not prestige, it is logistics. A single act is a scheduling decision. A troupe is a production — freight, visas, rigging, rehearsal and a technical compound on your site.
整团出行都带什么What travels with the troupe
The programme is built, crewed and run by us, so nothing essential has to be improvised on site:
- The artists. An international cast performing a programme of more than ten acts.
- The crew. Riggers, technicians and stage management who install and operate the show rather than only appearing in it.
- Rigging and equipment. The steel, motors, cables and props that the headline acts are built around.
- Wardrobe, music and cues. The production side of the programme, run from our own desk.
That is why a troupe booking behaves differently from hiring performers by the head: you are buying a show that arrives complete, and the site requirements are known months in advance rather than discovered on load-in day.
整团可以怎么用Formats a troupe can be booked in
| Big-top touring 大棚巡演 | Our own 1,000-seat tent with the full programme. Needs hard-standing ground of at least 60 m × 45 m. The natural length of a run is a full month. |
|---|---|
| Residency 驻场长演 | A theatre, resort or destination venue, operated jointly. Suits a season rather than a date. |
| Festival run 节庆档期 | Fixed dates and a set number of performances per day, built around your existing programme grid. |
| Licensed extract 单节目授权 | The smallest unit — one or two acts inside a show you already run. |
Weighing a troupe against a single act? Send the venue and the dates and we will tell you which of the two the room can actually carry — before any contract is discussed, and free of charge.
报价与档期由什么决定What decides the quote and the schedule
- Number of performances. A single gala and a thirty-show run are different machines, even with the same cast.
- How many acts you take. Two acts travel very differently from the full programme of more than ten.
- Indoor or outdoor. Outdoor runs need a weather protocol and a different rigging and anchoring plan.
- Freight and customs. Distance, the paperwork regime and the time of year all move the number.
- Season. Holiday peaks and the summer window are the first dates to fill, and the first to cost more.
Two practical rules cover most cases: for a fixed date, start three to six months out; and decide the format before you fix the date, because the format decides what has to be shipped.
找我们报价时请带上这些What to send us
- The venue — type, plus photographs, a floor plan or a section drawing.
- The numbers — clear height, performance area, floor load, power supply, audience capacity.
- The dates — including how many performances per day, and whether the big top is part of the plan.
- The market — indoor or outdoor, and what the audience is expecting to see.
With those we issue a technical plan and a quotation against them. The site assessment itself is free, and it comes before any commercial discussion.
常见问题Frequently asked questions
How is a troupe different from booking a single act?
A single act is one item, typically eight to twelve minutes, licensed into a show you already run. A troupe is a complete programme of more than ten acts, around 90 minutes, travelling with its own crew, rigging and props and operated by us.
How large is the travelling party?
It is sized to the programme you book — the artists plus the technicians and riggers needed to install and run it. The exact party is confirmed in the technical plan, once the format and the number of performances are fixed.
Do you bring your own rigging and equipment?
Yes. The equipment the headline acts are built around travels with the troupe, which is what keeps the site requirements knowable in advance instead of being improvised on load-in.
Can the troupe be licensed into a production we already run?
Yes — that is the act-licensing format, and it is where most partnerships start before moving to a full troupe booking in a later season.
Who deals with visas and work permits for the cast?
Most jurisdictions require an in-country applicant, so the paperwork is a joint exercise with your local host, sponsor or licensed promoter. We provide the documentation pack and the technical profile the application depends on.
Does the troupe perform with animals?
No. The programmes are entirely mechanical and human-performed. No animals are involved at any point.
How far ahead should we book?
Three to six months for a fixed date. Holiday peaks and the summer window fill first, and freight capacity tightens around them.
