We provide the services of Harry the Clown and/or Harry the Twist. Harry the Clown is a circus-like clown portrayed by Josef Silvia, and has been seen around the New England area for the last 10 years. He performs magic tricks, creates animal balloons, tells stories, and plays games with the children. These are the highlights of his one-hour Birthday Party act.
He also provides a half-hour Birthday Party Act, which includes animal balloons, a few tricks, and one main game. The one hour act includes a full magic show (for a clown) and two-three games.
Harry the Twist is Harry without the clown-makeup who can make balloon animals, play games, and is available for 30-45 minutes.
Harry the clown was great with the children. They asked many questions he had wonderful answers about where clowns live what they eat etc. He also did a few magic tricks for the children.
Price Range: $115-350
Gig Length: 30 - 240 minutes
Languages: English
Harry the Clown's One Hour Birthday Act will look like the following: A simple introduction (Harry meets the kids), a Silly Magic Show (Harry even teaches kids a simple trick!), 2-3 Games, followed by animal balloons for all and a special balloon crown for the birthday kid. He also knows plenty of fairy tales for younger children to hear! His Half Hour Act is a shortened version, minus the magic show.
Harry the Twist is essentially Josef Silvia's way to perform the same act without makeup, as clowns sometimes frighten younger children. Harry the Twist specializes in stories, games, and animal balloons. He is available for a Half Hour Act only at this time.
*Games usually played by Harry are River/Bank, Musical Chairs, just to name a few. He will also play the child's favorite game if requested by the parent.
Besides Birthday Parties, Harry the Clown is available for large-scale events up to 4 hours long (please contact Josef personally for any event over four hours long). These events usually call for an animal balloon twister, which Harry is happy to do! He usually gives the balloons out for free, so once you book him, the balloons come with him! He has a few choices for the children to pick from, so that every child can receive at least 1 balloon the first time. The balloon choices are: Flowers (very popular), swords, dogs, giraffes, hats, cats, ties, and fish. The reason for the limit is to make sure every child can get something from Harry.
Josef Silvia is a children's pastor and teacher of children's theater in the Dedham, MA area. He has been performing as Harry the Clown since 2003. His act has been seen in Haverhill, Barrington, Boston, Dedham, Providence, Plymouth, South Hamilton, just to name a few towns/cities. Churches throughout New England have utilized his talents to create animal balloons for children at large-scale events. Theater groups have utilized Harry as an emcee before children's shows, creating animal balloons and using his silly magic act. While he seems to have been a main performer at large-scale events, Harry has done quite a few birthday parties in his time. We are happy to announce that he will be offering a One Hour Birthday and Half Hour Birthday Act starting this December! Harry will be booking 2-3 birthdays a month, so be sure to book as early as possible!
Nothing. We bring the entertainment to you. The price we charge includes the animal balloons, and anything else Harry brings with him for the event. If you want to book Harry for a large event, please specify the amount of people who will be in attendance to help us gauge how many balloons we will need to use. For large events, such as festivals, church outreaches, corporate family events, Harry will make balloon animals and perform quick and simple tricks so that every child in the room has a chance to meet him.
*NOTE: For major events that last up to 2 or more hours, the selection of animal balloons children can choose from are as follows: hat, fish, mouse, dog, giraffe, sword, and flowers (flowers, dogs and swords are by far the most popular among kids). The reason for the selection is we do our best to make sure every child in large events has a chance to receive a balloon anima from Harry. In many cases, when Harry shows up to these events, he is almost automatically crowded. So, for large events, Harry will need a table or booth set aside for him and his balloons.
