Please take a look at our pictures on my Facebook page (Main Deck Productions) Below is a description of a PIRATE birthday party which includes 2 performers. Pirates are our specialty. But if you are looking for other characters please let us know.

Kids love our pirate training show!

PIRATE BIRTHDAY PARTY PACKAGE
The infamous Captain Jack Sparrow is in need of a new pirate crew. He ordered First Mate Morgan to search the land for possible recruits. Since Morgan likes Birthday Parties, those are always the first places he looks for new pirates. Once Captain Jack makes his entrance, the Pirate Training and fun begins!

Arrrr PIRATE BIRTHDAY PARTY INCLUDES:
TWO PIRATES – TWICE THE FUN!!!
CAPTAIN JACK AND FIRST MATE MORGAN!
1 hour to 1 1/2 hours of pirate fun from the time our pirates enter the party. (WE DO NOT CHARGE BY THE HOUR . INSTEAD, WE MAKE SURE EVERYONE HAS FUN.)

Using his very special horn, First Mate Morgan announces and introduces Captain Jack.

When Captain Jack finds out that everyone there wants to be pirates he & Morgan train the children to be pirates.
Pirate training activities include:
– Talk Like A Pirate
– Pirate Magic
– Pirate Exercises
– Sword Training
-- Pirate Oath
-- Treasure Hunt
-- Pirate Diploma
-- Captain Jack signs each diploma and gives each child a pirate name. (This is a time for each child to interact with Captain Jack and is a great photo op)
-- Captain Jack fires a cannon after "Happy Birthday" has been sung.

After pirate training, Captain Jack has the children recite the pirate oath and swears them in as pirates.

With a special ceremony, Captain Jack promotes the birthday child to Pirate Captain! The newly promoted Captain receives a special gift from Captain Jack!

All of the children receive an authentic Pirate Diploma personally signed by Captain Jack himself.

The birthday child receives a special personalized Pirate Captain “diploma”.

Captain Jack and the new Pirate Captain lead the new crew on their first official treasure hunt as pirates! (the treasure is a box of goodie “booty” bags supplied and hidden by the parents prior to our arrival and in secrecy)

As the birthday cake is presented Captain Jack & Morgan sing along to the Happy Birthday song and celebrate your child’s birthday the way pirates do, by making loud noises…with a real live CANNON!

Picture time with Captain Jack. Individual and group pictures with guests and pirates.
