Michael Carl O'Neil is pleased to present his copy-written living statue of one of America’s greatest heroes. Over the years, many versions of George Washington’s image has been rendered from money to mountains, even puppetry. It is now our turn. Our goal is to bring the human side of this hero through soft humour and a strong patriotic side. The living statue is a full size reproduction of George Washington in which people in the United States pass everyday. The mime actor is dressed in periodic costume coloured in an oxidised bronze holding an American flag in a patriotic pose. The statue would be placed upon a pedestal with lighting and appropriate music. The statue will leave pedestal and walk around occasionally. Samples of Scenarios: The ng of a stadium. Platform is placed in the middle of the arena. One spotlight following George Washington as he walks with patriotic music playing in the background onto the arena floor and walks to the pedestal where he stands holding the American flag in one hand . The other hand is placed on his heart as the American national anthem “Star Spangled Banner” begins to play. This would bring a new dimension tong ceremonies of sporting events, national events, by making it into a spectacle. An excellent tool to add to a prestigious event that relates to audiences of all ages. Other examples include: Near a "Cherry tree" - emphasizing American history, Weather is not a factor - pleased stay tuned - performance photos in the rain at St. Jacobs, ON Improvisation, (people dealing with the statue). Known for spontaneity - performances are always different! More details to follow.... The living statue of George Washington is to promote the human side and the history in an unique and fun manner. Bringing history alive - as heroes of stationnary statues should be acknowledged and appreciated for their many significant contributions to the world. He's perfect for festivals, fairs, parades, patriotic events, political events, stadiums, sporting events, malls and many other settings. George Washington's LIVING Statue Remember
