Transforming Tube and Spring-man

The Transforming Tube — the prop is made in 6 different colours, the act runs 6 minutes with interaction: the tube "swallows" and "spits out" the guest of honour to general laughter. A hit at weddings and corporate events.

Nikolai first saw the act performed by an American artiste at a festival in Dubai and bought it there; when the prop wore out, he sewed a new one himself — heavy manual work.

There's also a solo version, "Cosmic Fantasy", using three tubes over 8 minutes, and a paired version, "the trained tube", where a dompteuse in white and a black tube act out a scene of confrontation.

For younger audiences there's the "Spring-man" version: a bright cosmic alien, an interactive act for children's and city events. There's also a separate "flexible tube" act — the artiste in a sling plays with children and "swallows" balls.
