Pyrosutra has performed internationally, and for such clients as Adobe, Cirque du Soleil, Gnarly Head Wines, Harley-Davidson, Microsoft, & the Seattle Seahawks.
In larger venues Pyrosutra can perform with more elaborate tools. Fire fans provide a brilliant spectacle that can vary from an Asian style fan dance to at times resembling great wings of fire. With fire chains, or Polynesian poi, artists spin flaming torches at dizzying speeds through intricate maneuvers as the performers move with fluid grace. Staves with flaming torch ends provide a similar spectacle with more of a martial arts flair. Pyrosutrans also wield flaming swords. Spun with serpentine grace these mighty tools cut great swaths of fire through the air drawing attention and admiration of all who witness their display. Our performances are highly scalable and offer a wide selection of fire performances options which include: fire eaters, fire breathers, finger torches, palm torches, fans, chains (poi), staff, double staff, swords, and stilt walking. We also have a selection of non-fire acts such as black light (UV) shows using poi and flags, belly dance, fan dancing, ambient characters, stilt walking, hula-hooping and much much more.
