Click here to see full details of our newest show! Guido and Ronaldo Fanzini, inspired by the mountains of Venice and the canals of the Italian Alps, present their new show Cannonball Circus. With no expense spared, with no concern for their safety, they laugh in the face of danger. They have torn up the budget and gave their accountant a good talking to in order to bring you an amazing variety of acts; dancing ladies, a motor bike wall of death, the flying trapeze, and the world famous Moroccan chicken throwers. But what’s this; Ronaldo has spent the entire budget on a gargantuan cannon! There is no money left for the acts! The show must go on, but what will they do...

Fanzini Brothers are Italian Kerrymen and they bring us their new show "Deathwish". This is a 40 minute comedy interactive circus skills show. The Italian Fanzinis are distinguished by their unusual hairdos, one a sideshow bob look-alike, the other sports a crows nest wig. To an eclectic soundtrack of Superman and Mission Impossible themes, the boys ramp through a burning ring of fire on minature bicycles, juggle knives, pass fire down their trouser legs and comically engage their audiences in their antics. The language of death-defying stunts and so-what magic is used at every turn, giving a comic edge to all the carry-on. Do not miss these heroes of the Irish circus scene.
Take the tribal rhythms of Africa mesmeric and ancient, cool beats from the island of Cuba and the pounding of samba from the favellas of Rio . Add to this an extraordinary display of skills in manipulating various fire objects with skill and panache. When the two of these elements come together you get Flaming Rhythms. The Fanzini Brothers and Craiceann combine to bring you this unique experience in which an adrenaline pumping show is performed to a live soundtrack, provided by Craiceann, who are masters of the beat. Circus, fire and live percussion are magically intertwined. A unique experience, where musicians interact with fire performers. Perfect for meet and greet situations.
Craiceann is the Irish word for skin – drum skins. Craiceann are a 4-piece Swiss-Irish percussion band playing their interpretation of traditional West African rhythms, Cuban flavoured songs and even a little dash of Samba Reggae from Brazil . These rhythms are played on a wide variety of percussion instruments, namely, Djembe drums, (a traditional African hand drum) and the Djun Djuns, (three stick-played bass drums), Congas, (3 Cuban hand drums), Repinque (Brazilian samba drum), Snare drum and the bells and whistles of the smaller percussions! This mix is also complemented by singing and flute. These interlocking, musical rhythms have had a memorable effect on audiences at events such as the Rose of Tralee International Festival, Puck Fair, Cork Mid-Summer Arts Festival, the River Festival Ballinasloe and in Siamsa Tíre (National Folk Theatre of Ireland) Tralee , as part of the Samhlaíocht Chiarraí, Kerry Arts Festival. Just make sure to bring your dancing shoes!
The Fanzini Brothers can provide a wide range of characters for walkabout performance and parades from the little bikes to the giants on stilts. In fact the only limit is your imagination.
Fanzini require access to an electrical point to run P.A. /C.D. player and radio mics. |
