Quick Change Artists drive from UK to Sweden to fulfill Paper Conference Event!

The International Quick Change Artists have just returned after a very long road trip to Sweden! Since the volcanic eruption and the problems with the flights occurring close to this last event the costume change artists - Keelan and Charlotte decided it would be safer to make alternative travel arrangements in order to ensure they made it to the Paper Conference in time for their performance at the gala dinner.

Keelan and Charlotte set off from the UK on Friday night to catch the overnight ferry from Harwich to Hoek of Holland, then drove from Holland to Gothenburg, North Sweden on Saturday totally 13 hours drive. The event was held on Monday night in the SAS Radisson Hotel combined with the dinner in an old style restaurant come theatre which was 200 years old. The Quick Change Artists performed after the main course for the guests and the theme of "Change" was one that was very happy to be taken on after much controversy surrounding the recent paper strikes in Sweden. The delegates enjoyed the show and expressed their amazement when the Quick Change Artists got to meet some of them after the event.

Shortly after the Quick Change Performance, Keelan and Charlotte headed back onto the road in order to catch the Tuesday overnight ferry back to the UK.

Despite the extremely long road trip, when it should have been a very short flight, the Quick Change Artists appreciated a change from the normal "airport routine" and got to drive across 4 different countries and saw the more scenic route of them all!

Quick Change for Trade Shows - Leipzig – Germany – March 10

Quick Change Artists had a brief but eventful trip to Germany this month. Keelan and Charlotte were booked to perform for the final night farewell dinner of a technology trade show event held at the Convention Centre in Leipzig.

The show went down very well considering complications with the luggage arriving extremely late from Berlin and putting the show in jeopardy. After all the stress it was worth while in the end as the 2000 strong crowd erupted with applause during the performance showing their appreciation for the amazing fast costume change act.

Keelan and Charlotte – International Quick Change Artists were very excited to be heading to the other side of the pond and perform in New York City. One of the few places they had not been before. They took a couple of extra days to explore the city after they performed their incredible Quick Change Act for a private event held for a Sweet 16^th Birthday Party.

The event was held in a nightclub and was a total surprise for the birthday girl who had no idea about the party. The Quick Change Artists were joined by an American singer and some stars from Broadway to entertain the 150 teenage guests.

The Costume Change Artists had an amazing time in the USA and hope to be heading out there again soon!

On 31st January 2010, The Madhatter’s Tea Party was held in the Grovenors Hotel, Park Lane for around 800 underprivileged children and their families. The entertainment went on through the afternoon and included a whole range of well known faces including the Cheeky Girls, Diversity, The Heavy Weight Boxing Champion, among many more dance and variety acts including the Quick Change Artists.

The Quick Change Artists performed their fast paced colourful dress change act to the packed ballroom, which went down a storm.

Charlotte said “ We were really pleased we were able to show these children something completely different that they had never seen before. We could see their mouths drop as the costumes instantaneously changed colour and style!”

The London Taxidrivers' Fund for Underprivileged Children is a fabulous charity and many of the taxi drivers do a lot of very good work for these children.

This one was of the very few performances the UK based Quick Change Artists have performed at as the majority of their costume change shows are International

The venue was transformed into a mini Paris, which comprised of a 60m tall Effiel Tower covered in over 100,000 fairy lights as well as a Arc De Triomphe that cracked in half at the start of the fashion show. There were many huge designers attending the event and there was no expense spared!

The Quick Change Artists were given their own performance area known as Le Mystere! They performed their spectacular quick dress change act several times throughout the night, and the quirkiness of the act fitted in perfectly!

Quick Change Artists in Ancient Egyptian Temple

The International Quick Change Artists - Keelan and Charlotte were privileged enough to be invited to perform in the Ancient Habu Temple in Luxor, Egypt for a private function held by Pepsi for the Directors of Pepsi - Middle East.
