A Busker: The teams will have to find the musician, when found, they will have to tell us which song he is singing, but also the musician will give the team a laminated lyric sheet and will have to sing the song with him. The musician will then mark each team on effort, harmony and stage presence – brilliant fun and always works a treat.

Famous footballer: We will have an actor dressed as a famous footballer complete with kit and football. Each team will have to find him, identify him and ask certain questions to get the points. He will then ask for one team member to play ‘keepy uppies’ and the amount that team member completes will be added to their score!

CSI Ireland (Group Bookings Only!)

A completely unique role-play event that will have your group solving a dastardly murder!!! Each team will have to investigate a crime scene, track down and interrogate witnesses (played by professional actors) around the city centre, decipher clues, collect forensic evidence, solve some puzzles and present there case to the chief inspector. Add a lot of humour and a little good, honest police footwork, and you have a killer event.

How It Works:

• We book an appropriate venue of your choice
• The Seargeant meets group and while
• Three actors perform a range of characters
• It’s a mix between a Murder Mystery and a Treasure Hunt
• You are the detectives under the watchful eye of the Garda Commissioner

As your group arrives they are greeted by the Commissioner and suddenly there is a loud Gunshot, yes a Murder has been committed on the premises and you have to solve it.

The commissioner briefs the teams. Each team gets an investigation pack which contains a map, some tips on solving clues and collecting evidence.

Each team must first gather clues around the body, (a forensics officer will join them to guide them in this). This will lead them to the next venue for the investigation where they could meet the next witness or even a suspect or perhaps gather some vital physical evidence or clues.

The investigation will take them to different venues around the city – if they make the wrong choices, they could wind up on some wild goose chases so this must be on their guard! They will meet some very shady characters, come across some quite challenging puzzles and will have to search out vital pieces of evidence.

They will then have to piece all of this together to form a coherent investigation report, which will be rated and scored at the end by the commissioner. Even if all the teams solve the mystery, the one that scores the most points for how effectively they compile their case file will be the winner!

Team Apprentice (Group Bookings Only!)

In this event, participants can experience the thrills of what it’s like to be playing the part of a contestant on TV’s ‘The Apprentice’ – except this time, it’s a live event!!! The key to this event is fun and participation with a healthy dose of competition.

The participants get to meet our very own immensely successful entrepreneur, Bill Sullen, who has made millions selling almost out of date fruit all over the world with his company ‘Just in time and Juicy!’. He also runs the most successful second hand car sales business in North Dublin – ‘Cars or wha’?’, with branches almost nationwide. He will become their mentor for the course of the event, teaching them skills from his own business acumen and vast experience.

However, this is a competition so just like on the famous TV programme, the participants will be split into teams and will be set tasks to complete by Bill. Then, at the end of the event, the teams will be brought into the boardroom for a grilling by Bill where ultimately most of the teams will be fired and only one will be hired! Bill will be ably assisted by his assistants, Simon Scowl and Margaret Dour – both of whom will monitor the teams as they work together in the hope of achieving the ultimate goal – to be hired as the apprentices to Bill Sullen!!!

How it Works:

At the start of the event, the group will be introduced to Bill who is renowned for his hard -nosed business demeanour. He will in turn introduce them to his helpers, Margaret and Simon and he will then explain to the participants what they will have to do to win the competition. This will take the form of a business presentation. The group will then be divided into teams (although it is advised that this be done beforehand to save time) and each team will choose a name, which they will report to Bill or his helpers. Bill will then send them off on their tasks and give them the time limits they have to complete each task.

Laugh as Jack Flash starts with a juggling show that combines skill and comedy. The best part is that your team joins in as volunteers.

As your team watch the show, they will be thinking “I’ll never be able to do that.” But, when the show is over, Jack passes out juggling balls, and over the next 40 minutes, the majority will learn to juggle three balls.

At the end of the workshop not only can the staff juggle but they get to take home three juggling balls with your company logo branded onto them. This is a great exercise that will leave the participants smiling and with a new skill.

Smile as your team bonds through laughter. This exercise will allow the individuals of your team to let their hair down and see each other in a new light. The experience will teach them that everyone has a funny side and build a personal bond between members that will help the team become closer.

The emphasis is on trust and self belief. To truly be funny you must gain the acceptance of your audience and believe in yourself. This is a great way to tear down the walls between the team and help build bridges between management and staff, also valuable lessons for sales staff.

Upon conclusion, your staff will have stretched their boundaries, enhanced personal relationships and bonded through good times. The photos alone will make this experience hilarious.

The Workshop:

Chuckle and guffaw as Jack Flash opens this workshop with a 10 minute clowning show. Direct from Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey’s “Greatest Show on Earth”, Jack will demonstrate that being a clown is the ability to exaggerate all of your emotions to an extreme level. This requires honesty, trust and self-belief.

Your team will participate in a number of exercises designed to bring out their inner clown. They will laugh, learn silly walks, learn slapstick and put on their own demonstration / show at the end.
