Mobile Acts & Stilt Requirements

WildHoney performers are easy to work with and adaptable to a great range of environments. We walk comfortably in crowds, indoors and out, can squeeze through doorways, navigate a wide range of surfaces and tough it out in most weather.

Stilt Up
WildHoney works with tall stilts. We often get asked how we get up and down! A trestle table will do the trick.

Height
WildHoney stiltwalking characters and creatures measure anywhere from 2-3 metres in height inclusive of props. The Chimera puppet is 4.5 metres. When booking, please be mindful of your space, checking ceiling height, decor, outdoor environments, and any rigging locations to ensure a suitable setting for these unique performances.

Performance Area
When presenting WildHoney mobile acts, the stilt performers, and perfomance artists need enough room to move comfortably between people and a large flat, dry area to walk in. If performing at night, please ensure there is an adequately lit pathway to and from the Performance area.

Safety
WildHoney prioritises safety by providing in-house spotters for all performances. Maintaining a safe distance between performers and the public is crucial unless performers choose to interact with select audience members. The event organisers are responsible for hiring trained safety officers to ensure a secure environment for everyone involved.

Surface requirements
The WildHoney stilt performers cannot perform on wet, slippery, muddy or deep sandy surfaces, and any sign of liquid on a glossy surface is extremely hazardous to stilt walkers.

Steps
WildHoney stilt performers cannot walk up or down long flights of steps. Please make sure that the pathway between backstage and dressing rooms does not involve steps and can be avoided in the performance area.

Dressing Rooms
A dressing room must be supplied as close to the performance area as possible. Whilst this room does not have to be high, it must be private, have power, drinking water, lighting, 2 x trestle tables, 3 x chairs, bin, heater/cooling if available, costume hanging rack, and close access to toilet facilities.

Green Room
A dedicated space for performers to relax when they take a break.

Rider
Details to be discussed separately.

Weather Alerts
The WildHoney performers cannot perform in rain, extreme heat ( 34 degrees +) or gale force winds. WildHoney will be at the event (unless cancelled) and wait to be rescheduled (by negotiation) on the day of performance. If there is no possibility of performance (and those appearances are cancelled) WildHoney will invoice for 100% of the total fee.
