carpark interacting with the public.
A street parade by the actors and characters of macnas. Characters can also be created appropriate to each individual event.
Street performance, spectacle, innovative theatre and creative community participation is what these are all about. These parades bring together a blend of imagination, passion, wit and self-confidence in a variety of settings: in theatres, on streets, in school and in communities.
They first came to national attention in Ireland when a 20 metre long representation of Gulliver was washed up on a beach in Dublin, Ireland�s capital city, as part of the Dublin Millennium celebrations in 1988.Macnas has performed in more than 20 countries including Ireland, Britain, most of Europe, the USA and South America both in it�s own right bringing shows, parades and celebrations and alongside U2 as part of the Zooropa world tour.
A combination of any of these would be suitable for all family type days and you can add a samba band or barber-shop quartet for a full audio and visual attraction to grab the attention of even the most weary of passer-by.
