Corporate Entertainment

Looking for something different? You put on a great meeting last time, but now you have to top it. You need something unexpected, unique, fresh, not just the same old speaker, comedian, magician or band.  You found something different!  You found roaring chainsaws, cheering attendees, flaming torches and knives flying through the air! You found an experience. You found a surprise. You found genuine laughter, the kind that makes your face hurt.  You found two grown men who demonstrate partnership by leaping around the stage in fuchsia leotards, with rapid-fire banter, throwing sickles around the body of someone from the audience (or your CEO) as they receive a standing ovation. You found danger (or so it would seem), laughter, and an inspirational experience your people will never forget.

Adjust Like An Olympian

Show & Tell

The COVID-19 crisis has messed with our world, and it has affected everyone in so many ways. Imagine the heartbreak of training your whole life to compete in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, and then learning it has been postponed until 2021. Every Olympic athlete in the world is reeling, knowing that they must re-plan and re-think, and keep training for another year. For some, that means their Olympic dreams are over. For others, this year isn’t going to be at all like they planned.

But this year isn’t turning out how any of us planned.

We need to adjust (Innovate), help one another (Collaborate), and find new ways to do what we need to do (Execute).

We are all making adjustments. Some are minor, like washing our hands, and not hanging out with friends. Others must work from home, homeschool kids, find new ways to connect with loved ones and elderly parents. Businesses will fail, some after their owners have invested everything they had, some after going into debt to get it off the ground. Someone finally got the lead in the school play, or was going to be the first in their family to walk across the stage at graduation. Some had this one shot to play in the NCAA tournament. And some will not survive the pandemic.

Whether you are an Olympic athlete or not, this moment requires that you be nimble, well-trained, persistent, patient, creative, and strong. You will need the help of your teammates, your coaches and your mentors, and you will need to reach back and lend a hand to those who are stumbling. Maybe this is the moment we’ve all been training for, without really knowing it.

We have heard the words, “We are all in this together” more often in the past two weeks that at any time in our lives. Take those words to heart, because it is the case now, but it will also be the case after this crisis is over. And it is how it has always been.

Go, Team USA! Go, Team World!

Extra Credit

We reached out to April Ross to learn how this current situation is affecting her, and this is her response:

Alix and I are in full support of the responsible decision to postpone the Games, even if a little bit saddened and thrown off by the new timeline. Right now we are just focusing on things we can do during this time to stay sane, healthy, and get better while being at home. I’ve actually been practicing my juggling periodically since it’s so good for hand eye coordination and vision work, I still have a long way to go, but the lesson I took with you guys is coming in handy right now! Going forward I know there’s only so much I can control and how important it is to really live in the present moment. I’m embracing the silver lining and taking things day by day, even though I can’t wait to get back out there!

Until next time, we’re all in this together!

The post The Passing Zone reflect on Moon Landing Anniversary appeared first on concept artists.

]]> Fifty years ago, on July 20, 1969, humans landed on the moon, fulfilling a dream of generations, and opening the door to exploration of the cosmos.

The Passing Zone: “We are space buffs. We love everything about it. The launches, the landings, the movies, the documentaries, the perspectives of astronauts, the feats of mathematicians and scientists, the anti-gravity, and the twinkling of the stars. That fascination was part of the inspiration behind our space-themed performance piece we call “People-Juggling.”

The Passing Zone reflect on the Apollo Moon Landing Anniversary

The Passing Zone: When John F. Kennedy said, “We choose to go to the moon in this decade, and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard,” he was talking about space exploration. However, that is the mindset of jugglers. We search for the difficult, and set out to master it. “People-Juggling” is a good example of an idea that was big, crazy, unlikely, and different than what other performers were doing. We decided, “we want to juggle people,” and then we chose to accomplish that.

They continue: “Aspire to do the difficult. Embrace it. Search it out, and tackle it. Do something no one has done. Set your sights on something seemingly impossible. It will be the thing that sets you apart from the rest. Is it difficult? Good. Then probably nobody else will bother to do it. You be the one to do it. And we promise, you will stand out.”

Jon Wee and Owen Morse: “It is the ultimate story of risk, dreams, science, and accomplishment. But after you’ve spent hours reliving that event, use the inspiration to set your sights on your own moon landing. Set a crazy goal, maybe one that only you believe in. Then do it. Because it is hard.”

Continuing: “Once we decided that juggling people was our goal, it took us four years to accomplish it. There were experiments, failures, various premises and versions, starts and re-starts. Many thousands of dollars were spent on equipment, consultants, plans, riggers, and eventually a free-standing rig that we could set up anywhere, to perform this piece. Friends volunteered as test subjects. It is the most time and money we have spent, and the hardest we’ve worked, and we are pleased that it finally paid off!”

The Passing Zone

Jon Wee and Owen Morse, The Passing Zone, are one of the most accomplished comedy duos in the nation. They’ve done it by focusing on three success principles- innovation, collaboration and execution. Those same principles can help any group achieve fantastic results, and there is no better way to bring them these key ideas than through The Passing Zone’s hilarious, energetic, and inspiring keynote.

“Houston, we have a… solution!”

Solve your speaker problem with The Passing Zone, for an event that is out of this world!

The Passing Zone’s performances are exciting, and timely. Just like the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, everyone will be talking about that amazing demonstration of teamwork and precision, which is what Jon & Owen’s keynote perfectly demonstrates. In addition, their “People-Juggling” piece is interactive, thrilling, and involves 3 people from your group who will fly around the stage as hero “jugglenauts!”

This keynote goes where no keynote has gone before!
