Essentially, its a walking stage, where I stand, hidden, behind the curtain, and having live conversations with your event attendees.  I'm fully mobile and can easily see from behind the curtain.  It's actually a GREAT trade show attention getter.  But generally I am asked to perform this unique strolling character at festivals.

Quick story: I have been invited to work at Charles Swindoll's church in Frisco, TX a number of times.  My first time there, I was doing a little walk-around in this stage during their vacation Bible school.  After a few laughs I was escorted, in the stage, into Dr. Swindoll's office.  He was ready to spar.  Ferdinand and Chuck fought for a few minutes.  During that time, Ferdinand implied that Dr. Swindoll drank before his sermons, accused him of having bad breath and wearing a toupee'.  Mr. Swindoll seemed to have no trouble exchanging tit for tat. It was good times.   Chuck seems like a pretty good guy. And, I was invited back.
