DaMissus the Clown Frequently Asked Questions

How can I Make sure that I am getting the Best Entertainer for my event ?

Not all entertainers are created equal. They range from the college kid who has seen a book about clowns, to the hobbyist, who does it every now and then, to the top of the line performer. 

Here are five questions ( and our answers to the questions)  that you should ask any entertainer:

1. Who are you going to send me?

Beware the organization that will promise you a clown, and then tell you at the last minute that they can't come up with one. If the first question cannot be answered, then neither can the following three.

2. What kind of training have they had?

DaMissus the Clown have received training from many performers. We regularly attend workshops and conventions to upgrade our skills. We maintain a large library of books, audio and video tapes available only to the professional. We also train people in the art of balloon sculpture and magic, ranging from elementary school kids to professionals like ourselves at conventions.

3. What kind of experience do you have?

We are full time performers. Our experience comes from many long years of training and hard work. DaMissus has performed in a variety of places, from performing at Weddings, Birthday Parties, and Company Picnics.

4. What do you offer?

Balloon Art, Face Painting, Magic Shows, Games, Puppets, Sand art, and Spin Art. 
We have a variety of educational and entertaining shows suitable for ages three and higher. We have one Book on Balloon Sculpture, and we have the first fully functional airbrush face painting system in the Wash DC Metro Area. Our airbrush system uses a variety of precut stencils and freehand art to produce detailed pictures with paints made exclusively for skin. This is suitable for high volume areas. In many instances, we can make a stencil of your company logo, to be used as advertising.

5. How far in advance do you book?

Sometimes as much as a year or more, for certain corporate events. We recommend that you book us as soon as you know the date, time and location of the event. Weekends book up quickly, but from time to time we do have openings, so call now, before someone else hires us first.

OK, I AM CONVINCED. HOW DO I HIRE YOU? 

Call us thru the Balloon Crew at 703-912-4710
