The Fish Men: Comic Walkabout Act for Hire in London
The Fish Men are a comic walkabout act: “reverse mermaids” who have swapped their tails for human legs. With huge googly eyes and plenty of improvised banter, they roam among your guests, greet people with a “Fish Bump” and pose for a “shellfie”. You can book them through Gen Z Events for themed parties, festivals and corporate events in London and Hertfordshire.
What the act involves
The story is simple: the Fish Men are on holiday. They've come up from the sea to explore dry land and the strange people who live on it. Everything is new to them, so every guest becomes part of the joke.
Walkabout performance among your guests, so the entertainment comes to them
Interactive improvisation, with each Fish Man reacting to whoever they meet
Choreographed moments that can be tailored to your event
Photo opportunities that guests will want to share
The performers are experienced street-theatre professionals, and they'll shape the act around your event and audience.
