ORIGAMI
Rick Beech is one of our most
talented, versatile and unique entertainers,
specialising in Japanese origami as a close-up
entertainment for all corporate and private
occasions. He can take a sheet of paper and in
minutes just by folding turn it into one of an
amazing variety of palm-sized subjects, such as
Shell, Rose, Stiletto, Butterfly, Swan, VW
Convertible, Dalmatian, Shirt with Tie, Lily, Santa,
and Panda. 3D models Rick presents in small
transparent cubic boxes whilst 2D pieces are
preserved in folded wallets, so that guests /
delegates can safely take home their special gift.
Whatever the theme of the event, the
colour scheme, or the client business, Rick can
design the perfect souvenir keepsake of the
occasion, which can either be fashioned from company
paper, specially chosen material, or even bank
notes, which are always a hit in financial circles!
Rick goes down a particular storm at events such as
weddings and barmitzvahs where there are lots of
children – he can entertain youngsters for hours
with a series of action folds (Kissing Lips,
Zoomerang, Frog Puppet, Flapping Bird, etc) as well
as clever tricks with newspapers, postcards and
money. Rick is a consummately charming and
professional individual who accompanies visual skill
with relaxed, informal and entertaining patter.
As a magician colleague once
remarked, however, the real joy of Rick’s act is not
so much what he can finally produce, but actually
seeing him in action; guests will be enthralled and
fascinated as they watch him carefully creating the
finished subject, especially as Rick is ‘Old
Chipolata Fingers’ personified – how does he manage
to work so quickly and in such minute detail with
such large hands and sausage fingers??!! Because of
this, while pre-event samples can be provided upon
request, Rick has prepared a CD – ROM featuring
typical ‘performances’ and typical reactions, as a
few of his masterworks are shown in video clip.
Please feel free to request a copy!
Rick can also supply ready-folded
gifts for every single guest! These are priced
individually or by bulk, always depending on the
complexity of the given design. Ideal for Chinese
New Year, Valentines, Christmas Parties and a wealth
of other special occasions throughout the year.
Rick Beech will always bring a touch
of origami enchantment to your event
