UMO special event characters include:
Roving Characters: UMO's talented performers have created a wide range of spirited and beautiful characters to bring cheer and wonderment to any event!
- Ice Whites: These fresh, new characters from UMO are beautiful living sculptures. Moving in slow motion throughout the event, these "art pieces come to life" shift in and out of acrobatics and sculptural poses.
- European Carnivale: Lively and acrobatic and just a little bit internationale, these most colorful of UMO characters are true artistes de la vie, engaging event guests in spirited conversation, dance and even acrobatics.
- Buffoons: Other worldly, wild and wonderful, these popular creatures are notable for their hilarious and gleefully irreverent ways. They make wonderful guests for any event - guaranteed to spice up the conversation and occasionally break into beautiful song.
- Djools: Five acrobactic, sacred clown characters, highly rhythmic, colorful and magical. These characters have special appeal for children's events.
Aerial Virtuosity: UMO artists create a stunning display of visual poetry using a range of aerial circus skills including "tissu", "Spanish Web," "hoop", trapeze, "Bungee Trapeze" and tightrope.
Masters of Ceremony: UMO members are adept and experienced as Masters of Ceremony for events as diverse as multi-million dollar fund-raisers and personal parties.
Film/Television/Commisioned work: UMO is an inspired and versatile ensemble, able to create characters, story, movement, original songs, sound and images for your project.
