Nothing written can adequately convey what a
Flam Chen performance is like, when you're right there in front
of a symphony of blazing fire manipulated on a large scale by fearless
artists. Soulful performance art-meets-fire is a start, but it doesn’t
quite capture the span of what the troupe does during one of its
shows. Flam Chen uses costumes, puppetry and pyrotechnics to totally
immerse the crowd in its own experience. Every show is unique; the
performers will dance with fire hoops and fans, battle with flaming
swords, spin Balinese fire chains, bungee, fly on trapeze, or perform
a host of other awe-inspiring acts. Flam Chen performs internationally
at altculture massives, art festivals and everything in between.
