For a standard bellydance performance, you can expect a 25-30min show of about 7 songs with props structured as follows:
Entrance, Balancing Section, Finger Cymbals/Audience Participation, Drum Solo, and Finale. Prop options include Wings, LED Wings, Candle Tray, Sword, Palm Candles, Candelabra, Finger Cymbals, Cane, Fan Veils, and Feather Fans. A common set would be Wings entrance, Candle Tray Balancing, Finger Cymbals/Audience Participation, Drum Solo, Veil Finale. You also have the option to customize with additional fire props, or snake.
For a standard Fire show, you can expect a 15-20min long performance including the following props of your choice: Fire Torches (fire eating), Fire Belt, Fire Crown, Candle Tray, Fire Fans, Fire Sword, Palm Candles/ Palm Torches, and Candelabra. Also available is an exclusive custom prop no other fire performer owns; a fire bowl for balancing.
For a standard hour long singing set, I usually structure into two 30min sets of your choice of songs and genre. Sets can be longer or shorter depending on the event needs. I have my own high quality Bose Sound system PA and Microphone, along with the option to have a live musician accompany the set or use instrumental backing tracks.
Singing Telegrams are any character of choice, and will be a 3 song acapella mashup + happy birthday (if it is a birthday event) with custom lyrics related to the theme of the event, and physical telegram with personal message to be delivered after the performance. Telegrams are generally around 5 minutes long. Most popular telegrams are BellyGram, Lady GaGa, Marilyn Monroe, Princess Jasmine, and Vegas Showgirl.
Syrena Nikole is an international bellydancer, singer, and specialty performer from New York City. Highlights of her career include her run as a solo dancer for The Metropolitan Opera’s 2017 production of Thaïs, touring as a soloist with folk legend Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul, and Mary for the musical Lonesome Traveler, and accompanying pop star Ishtar Alabina as a featured dancer for her 2019 North America and Canada tour. Specialty skill sets include fire performance, bellydance, aerial acrobatics, and snake charming.
Bellydance Performances require that there is no A/C or Fan for the Candle Tray portion of the set if that prop is chosen, and a DJ or sound system able to play music from my phone via an aux chord (or the ability to have the music emailed ahead of time). I also have a small portable speaker for more intimate events if necessary.
For Fire Performances, there needs to be a fire extinguisher present if larger props are requested. I will come with my own fire safety assistant.
Singing performances require an outlet to plug my sound system in, or a sound system already set up on the event site.
