Title: Aerial Angels on Dragon's Den CBC
Post by: aerial angels on June 02, 2008, 11:33:24 PM
Greetings from the Aerial Angels!

Our new website is up - check it out at www.angelsintheair.com!

* * *

Aerial Angels will be on the Canadian reality TV show Dragon's Den! The show features entrepreneurs and inventors pitching their business ideas to a panel of investment "Dragons" who challenge the numbers, the products and the ideas, and then fund (or not) the best ideas right then and there. Like American Idol for businesses, with the difference that it's the judges' own money.

We're taking our "Big Show" idea to the Dragons, and hoping they'll be interested in investing in our upcoming indoor touring spectacular. In true Angels fashion, the Big Show will feature amazing feats of circus skill...as an excuse to spend time with fascinating personalities and get to know the performers.

We film June 9th in Toronto and we'll let you know when the episode will air!

Find out more about Dragon's Den at the CBC website: http://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/ where you can also view (and comment on) our video pitch: http://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/auditions/aerialangels.html

Learn more about The Big Show - hot young director/film-maker Sandy Zwier shot footage of our preliminary creative meeting in Atlanta for a short documentary. Watch it at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zAS-BIEP_BQ

We are seeking investors beyond the Dragons - let us know if we can send you the business plan for your consideration or for you to pass to someone you know.

Summer tour madness starts this weekend! The Red Team heads to the Dundas (Ontario) Busker Festival, the Street Performer World Championships in Dublin, Ireland, and Covent Garden in London, England. Spike and Isabella also travel to Singapore for a World Water Conference event, where they'll perform in front of a giant projection screen made of mist.

The Blue Team commutes from Kalamazoo for the Holland Street Performer Series and then visits Ontario for Busker Festivals in Cobourg and Brockville before starting the Sterling Renaissance Festival in upstate New York. Brand-new Angel Duke joins Mimi and Flame with original routines on fabric and duo trapeze.
