Meet the "crew"
Characters
Here is the current set of characters that have graced festivals and parties across Aotearoa. If you need something bespoke, get in touch - CON(rad) ARTIST works with a costume designer on his creations. The sky is the limit. Well no, budget is. But we can work to a budget.
The Donsey
Me and my Gnomies
Ah, gather 'round, dear friends! Let me tell ye of Rachael the Rooster, who leads the merry Donsey, carving a path of pure joy and mischief through the festival grounds. Aye, ye can see it—smiles sprouting like wildflowers on the faces of the crowd!
These fine folk, guardians of the earth they be, have come to lend a hand and share their wisdom. They teach us all how to live with hearts full of joy, in harmony with each other, and in tune with the grand rhythms of our beloved planet. Bless their wee souls!
Master of any ceremony
MC
Weddings, corporate schenanegans, bar mitzvah, baby showers (probably not..) .. Con is your hilarious MC.
Hugs and love on tap
The Tree
The Tree is a Tree Huggers delight - a tree hugs back. Perhaps the tree didn't get enough cuddles from dad as a sapling. The Tree imparts- subtle and not so subtle - wisdom about the state of the environment whilst sharing the love to partygoers.
Yes, you can see a police check... C'mon.
It's not that sort of tree.
Cake for any occasion
The Cake
Birthday parties, anniversaries. It even works in a Christmas Parade, the kids all chanted "we want cake! we want cake!".
A clucking good conversationalist
Rachel the Rooster
Rachel (they/ia) is a loveable (if not angsty) soul, on transition from a hen to a rooster. They are a complex character, making everyone smile and encouraging a few interesting conversations.
Lady Conny
Bearded Lady
The only real queen at the fair...
Party amper
Rocketman/Dare Devil
You need the crowd to get jumping. They need to let their hair down. Rocketman gets them gasping and oohing and ahhing
Crowd wrangler extraordinaire
Ranger
Crowds are unruly beasts. The Ranger can do better than a sheep dog on the final of Country Calendar's Top Dog.
