Purim Palooza!

Twister Theater is providing festival fun at Asheville’s Purim Palooza today!

We Like to Move It

Twister Theater's Mr. Mime, Mr. Twister, and Madagascar fan Hannah

Bandidos Burritos hosted a Madagascar extravaganza for Hannah Smudde yesterday, and Twister Theater provided a variety of services, including balloon decorations, balloon twisting, magic, miming, and event photography.

 

 

In his second year providing Hannah’s birthday party balloon twisting and magical fun, Mr. Twister-Asheville was joined by Mr. Mime (a wee sensation).

Sporting a Madagascar movie theme, Hannah’s party was a wild animated creature-filled and rainbow-colored sensation, complete with streamers and jungle blossoms; custom music; friends and family of all ages; face painting; classic games; and the party-long presence of our 2 performers. Mr. Twister pitched in to help serve cake before happily devouring a piece himself.

“See you next year, Mr. Twister!” –Hannah Smudde

 

Fall Family Fun

Mr. Twister shares a hot dog with LennonThe kids are back in school, and Asheville’s fall festivals are everywhere!

Twister Theater has balloon artists, face painters and a mime scheduled for September and October events, but it’s not too late to book your own parties and office openings.

Our own Stephanie Miles appears at Asheville Pizza & Brewing Company for 5:30-7:30 PM Tuesday Family Nights, and Mr. Twister-Asheville is found at The Hop Ice Cream Cafe on Fridays 7-9 PM.

 

Mr. Mime at The Hop Ice Cream CafeTwister Theater launched a new performer 2 weeks ago. Mr. Mime is 7 years old and very talkative — except when he’s a mime. Most of his tips went straight into the gumball machine. Thanks to all for your warm welcome.

Revel in Asheville’s crisp fall days. And next time you’re enjoying the festival show or featured party entertainer, ask him if he’s from Twister Theater.
