Voted the most ‘Talented’ Musical Saw player (or Sawyer) in Australia,
He has once again emerged from the dark alleyways to bring a little bit of light and a whole lot of weird into your lives. You are probably all familiar with his musical saw (if you’re not, her name’s Gretel) but who exactly is this odd little clown? What other tricks does he have up his sleeve? And more to the point, how on earth does one actually find the world’s smallest orchestra when they’re so very, very small. Watch him and Gretel reveal the answers to all these secrets and more through physical comedy, story-telling, and puppetry. David puts the ‘Devil’ back into ‘Vaudeville’ and a smile upon your face.
Act 1 Musical Saw
My musical saw work can be performed in a continuous loop. Basically, I set myself up and commence serenading-performing for the punters, by playing renditions of famous tunes on my saw. I would do this for a 1 hour set.
Act 2 Skeleton Marionette work
Much the same as the above idea, I can perform with Frankie Bones (my marionette), for a similar length of time. He does song and dance numbers to pieces of old time music on a portable fold-out stage . Again, more of a walk by piece rather than a feature length show.
Act 3 Musical Saw and Skeleton Marionette work
I can also offer a mixture of the above acts with both the Musical Saw and The Skeleton Marionette, swapping between the two if the client prefers (1 hour duration).
OR
Offer a 13 minute silent clowning act incorporating the above skills, as well as some audience participation.
Acts require little more than a spot to perform on (away from the wind on days with strong winds), as well as background music that played through a small battery powered portable amp.
