Liberty Wings

Ahoy Mate! Chris Biro here, bird trainer and career pirate. Please let me take a few moments to introduce you to my show.

The Ship: Our pirate ship and display captures everyone’s attention, children, teens, and seniors. Eye catching and unique is the best description for our authentic small/tall sailing top sail scooner pirate ship, which stands 3 5 feet tall and extends 40 feet fr01n stern to the tip of the bowsprit. With this ship’s authentic rigging, billowing sales and 12×16 ft “dock” stage, the public is as fascinated with her as they are the birds.

The Show: As an iconically dressed pirate I offer our fascinating educational award winning interactive stage shows (30-40 minutes) three to four times a day, and I am out with the birds between shows, for a total of 6 hours per day. This innovative show traverses such subjects as what-makes-a-parrot-a-parrot to how-local-recycling-can-help­many-endangered-species-in-the-wild as well as exposes the public to the non profit conservation work we do with parrots in the wild in Central and South America.

The Hands-On: Between shows people are granted the rare and memorable privilege of safe hands-on with the birds, some of the most friendly and cuddly parrots in the business. This is a rare treat enjoyed by the public who are most often told by parrot owners (and for good reasons), ‘look but don’t touch’. The up-close-&-personal aspect of petting or holding real parrots will often result in patrons at your office asking you to have us back year after year.

The Freeflight: Our “crew” ranges in size from Conures to Macaws, typically 20-25 birds. The incredible sight of free flying parrots is now available to your fair patrons and not limited to visitors of parrots in their far off native lands (we will bring flyers from South America, Australia and Africa). Throughout the day many of our birds dazzle the public with incredible spontaneous demonstrations of freeflight as single flyers and in groups.

The Response: Our performance generates only positive feedback for your fair – with zero animal complaints and virtually none of any other kind over the last 25 years. As a result the majority of our work has been with repeat business. Our flock of Sun Conure’s flying” about the fairgrounds and landing on kids doing the dollar bill trick are always popular cell phone photo favorites often shared on facebook. This rare and unforgettable experience is the center of discussion by fair patrons and is frequently featured by the local media with front-page newspaper photos/articles and TV news specials.

The Merry Wives of Windsor

A ten-piece all-female folk band based in Pasadena, California. Blending elements of folk music from the British Isles and the Americas, the foundation of the Merry Wives’ sound is rich vocal harmonies, with support and ornamentation by traditional and contemporary folk instruments. Our repertoire includes traditional Irish pieces and original compositions, and our performance styles range from bawdy scripted shows, to amplified concerts, to casual atmospheric music.

With musical backgrounds in everything from Folk to Musical Theater, and even straying to Pop and Opera, the Merry Wives present a relevant musical perspective, while still staying true to the spirit of the music they perform. These lovely and talented ladies have graced the stages of the El Rey Theater, the Grove of Anaheim, and The Galaxy Theatre, as well as Renaissance Faires across the country. They have recorded nine studio albums.
