I help the party reach another level from my themed outfits, choreographed acts to select songs, and a multitude of props. I have non-fire props too such as hoops, led staffs, silk fans, poi, silk rope darts, clubs, and Isis wings. As for fire props, I have a fire tutu, palm torches, umbrella, bat, levi-wand, rope dart, double swords, fans, hoop, staffs, poi, triads, puppy hammer meteor dart, fire-eating torches.
I usually will group all my props into one performance but I can accommodate and lengthen the performance to a prop every 15 minutes if that works better. Pricing varies on how many props I perform for your event.
Vanessa's mesmerizing act initially entranced our party attendees, and she allowed them to safely handle one of her props. However, I would not rebook her due to several issues:
She arrived late to the event and a bit disoriented.
She came unprepared, lacking a lighter essential for her performance.
The music she selected, which was heavy metal, clashed with the party's atmosphere and negatively impacted the overall vibe.
There was confusion regarding the location of her fire blanket, though it was eventually found.
Midway through the performance, she misplaced her lighter, causing further delays as we had to find a replacement.
On a positive note, Vanessa did incorporate fire breathing at the end of her act, which wasn't part of the original agreement. While I appreciated this addition, it doesn't outweigh the other concerns.
In conclusion, despite some engaging elements, the numerous logistical issues and lack of preparation make it unlikely that I would hire Vanessa for future events.
Response from The Painted Lady Fire Productions:
Hi Allison,
I arrived 15 minutes late because I went to the other Grass Roots Kava bar that was 20 minutes away. I had arrived there 25 minutes early, unpacked, paid for parking and walked to the location to realize it was the other location which was frustrating. It was hard to find parking for the event so I was flustered when I arrived.
I admit I did forget and loose the lighter which was frustrating for me as well which is why I decided to share a fire breathing act at the end.
I had music that I had shared with both of you 5 days before the event and you and the dj could have reviewed it and selected what you wanted. I am not the dj, I am the fire performer and you asked what I like to spin to. Instead you should have just made your own playlist of what you wanted me to perform to which I would have been fine performing ti what ever you wanted me to. Someone did move my fire blanket which is a safety hazard and I needed to locate it and it was behind a booth!
I trained all week to nail my choreography while your back was turned to me most of the evening. I tried getting your attention and approval but the fact that you gave me a 2 star is sad and doesn’t reflect the performance I gave. I also dressed the part and gave an incredible performance. Sad you gave me this review.
Vanessa was fine when she was performing. She was 30 minutes late, however, to a two hour show from 7-9 at a restaurant that closes at 9. We lost quite a few customers who got tired of waiting. They expected someone to be setting up around 6:30 and no one was there at 7:20. She offered to stay late but we closed. Lots of down time preparing, changing, etc. (probably from being late) Posed for a photographer she must have hired quite a bit too. All added up to a subpar show from the crowd we lost to the down time with what we had left. We paid full price but got half a show. We paid cash for the fire breathing at the end.
Response from The Painted Lady Fire Productions:
I may have been 25 minutes late but I did plan on taking a few 5 minute breaks. I opted out on the breaks and gave a full hour and 20 minute back to back performance! It took me a minute to change, I slid off one skirt and slid on another, the only reason why I was waiting was because the bar tender couldn’t give away a prize. That delayed me about 10 minutes. I last minute offered a photographer to come and see the performance but I did not hire him and I have footage of me performing for your crowd not posing for the photographer that is posted on YouTube. You did not get half of a show and to call my performance subpar is and insult and disgrace to how much time and money I have invested in being a performer that can put on the magnitude of a performance that I do.
Here is my YouTube video of the performance:

We had a great time, show was perfect, the kids and adults loved the fire performance, great communication and very professional
She did a great job. Only issue was timing. Could of been here earlier. But everyone enjoyed her performance and I would hire her again.
Vanessa was absolutely incredible!! Her skills are remarkable! She is very professional and easy to work with. We loved having her at our event and can't wait to have her back again! Highly recommend!
We hired her as entertainment for our Halloween party. She has great costumes. Fantastic crowd interaction. She was just amazing. If you are looking for a way to make your next event EPIC, I would absolutely go with her!!
Response from The Painted Lady Fire Productions:
I really did have a blast last night at your Halloween party! Thank you for inviting me out! I hope you both know you are officially the coolest couple in the complex because that was an incredible party! I appreciate your review :)
On time and even stayed a little longer than paid for. Great addition to our Halloween party and highly recommend for any event. Very cool to watch how she used all her props.
Response from The Painted Lady Fire Productions:
Thank you so much! Your party was epic and one of my top events I have ever performed at! I appreciate your hospitality and authentic review.
Everything was perfect. She communicated well and she was engaging the moment she pulled up. 10/10 would book again.

Everything about her performance was great. Prompt followup to all of our questions. She was very entertaining and the whole crowd enjoyed the show. She is very talented and we recommend hiring her for your next event.
Vanessa was incredible and entertained our guests. She had a great vibe about her and fit right into our outside music festival themed patio party. We will most definitely have her back year over year! Thank you Vanessa XOXOXOX

**What combo works best for your event?**
Seeing others perform with proficiency and fluidity when I attended UFG, Fire Drums, MOPS, and Burning Man inspired me to manipulate as many props as I can by learning the basics and master all that I can. In 2019 & 2020 I went to weekly fire jams like LA Burn Club, where I watched and learning from the best. I have been fallen in love with all of these props: rope dart, poi, double staves, silk fans and doodle grip fans, hoop/s, triads, tutting/ palm dancing, puppy-hammer, staff, and levi-wand. With the knowledge of the basics of all these props listed, I have mastered doing choreographed pieces on fire with them too! I also learned how to eat and breathe fire in 2019 and consider myself to be experienced at both. I moved to IL from CA at the end of 2020 and I felt alone in a new place, so I turned to practicing for hours in my extra space. I created a gig salad in 2022 and started performing regularly throughout the year. My favorite performances I had done where I was the main performance would be The World’s Naked Bicycle Ride parade which I had performed for in 2021 & 2022. Another would be Tokiland, which is a charitable festival or an engagement party right before moving to FL. I moved to St. Pete, FL at the end of 2022, and a highlight performance to kick off 2023 was performing on the 16th floor at the The Westin Sarasota on NYE for a VIP crowd. I sure can throw down a mighty performance packed with multiple props. I strive to be a stronger performance artist, so it's my goal to attend as many flow festivals as I can, to possibly share what I know and also learn from others. <3
As for lighting, it's better if we had a place that was dim lit or if we could turn off the light; it's better at night but can be done during the day too. As for staging, I don't need anything more than a 10 x 10 space but the larger the space the better. I can provide the sound and if you have sound, I can provide music so my performance is perfectly choreographed.
