Frequently Asked Questions

Q. I'm planning a birthday party. How many children should be invited?
A. It can be 5 or it can be 35 - but never more than you think you can handle.

Q. Should we have our event inside or outside?
A. All our events are RAIN or SHINE. If it's very hot, parties are better inside as children will participate more and be more comfortable. If the event is outside, they must be away from pools, hoses or other distractions that will take away from the show.

Q. What times are your entertainers available?
A. Any time. We recommend booking the entertainers to arrive later than the guests to accomodate latecomers - at least 15 minutes to 1 hour later if a clown is doing the show.

Q. How long can your entertainers work?
A. As long as you want, but the minimum is 1 hour for birthday parties and 2 hours for corporate parties, to be increased in half-hour increments.

"I found Tharpo to be not only spectacular with the guests but professional leading up to the party. He was very knowledgeable and helpful in the planning stages... He was willing to do what it would take to make the clients happy."

Q. Should the performers be in the foreground or background?
A. This depends on what else is going on. If the performer is the only, or main event, naturally he or she will be in the foreground. If you have several things going on, you may want the clown to just walk and entertain, or do balloons or face painting instead of a show.
