Fire
and elemental theatre
"Goffee the clown, shaman and international fire theatre wizard conceals
the identity of David Eveleigh, a visionary cove who designed the 26 foot high
wicker man floating down the Wye at 10 o'clock at night with his head on fire...
.....a
thank-god-I-was-there moment." (Hay Festival finale).
John Walsh,
The Independent, 7th June 1999.

I choose to use fire as an elemental
and primeval force, entwined with Myths and Legends
celebrating or reflecting our elemental nature and
roots. I do have several shows off the hook. However,
most of my fire work is site specific or tailored
for a specific budget. Give me a site and an idea
or theme and a budget and I can tell you what I can
put together. I am particularly interested in collaborations,
focusing festivals and bringing together performers,
musicians, dancers, circus artistes and professional
workshops for grand festival finales or community
projects. See the Workshops
page.

Projects/commissions are usually one-off
site specific.
I am interested in establishing
annual events and celebrations.
Fire Labyrinths and Fire Trails
Fire labyrinths and trails have ranged in size
from 10 metres to 50 metres diameter.
Using sand banks and sawdust,
I have devised
a method of laying out a design that will light in good and
bad weather conditions and leave no, or minmal damage to field,
beach
or park.
Fire sculptures are a wonderful mesmeric focus for an event
and exciting performing spaces for experienced fire dancers
or performers.
They are wonderful to process.
