Bowler Hat Men Walkabout

Book our renowned character entertainment walkabout act for a unique roaming performance. This artistic show is perfect for arts festivals, corporate parties, and shopping centers. As a roving act, these characters are fantastic for photo opportunities and interacting with audiences.

Everyone will remember the scene in the Thomas Crown Affair remake where Pierce Brosnan fills the Metropolitan Museum of Art with this character from the famous Rene Magritte painting to throw off the detectives.

With an apple in front of his face, the man in the painting is an icon of modern art and has been parodied and included in films, cartoons, and other art pieces since 1964. Now you can have the roaming act and his brothers at your event!

The characters wear black suits with white shirts and red ties, sticking to the image, and wear large green apples on their noses to create the look of the hovering apple from the painting, which Magritte made as a self-portrait.

They also have picture frames suspended around their heads, to which are attached models of more men in black suits wearing bowler hats! This creates the illusion of many more people than are actually walking around - making for an impressive spectacle!

The roaming act is a fantastic addition to a festival, especially arts festivals, as the artistic show is humorous and mysterious. Great for photo opportunities or as a conversation starter, the characters can be brought into shopping centers to drive foot traffic and engage audiences with your event or brand activation.
