The Most Frequently Asked Questions – and the Most Fascinating Answers
“Are you siblings?”
“What do you love most about your job?”
“Do you still get nervous before shows?”
“How long have you been doing this?”
There are so many fascinating questions—and our answers to them speak not only of us and our lives, but also of our passion for the performing arts. We would love to have such conversations with you and your team in person at your next event. However, to ensure we even reach the point where we can chat live, we have compiled the most important information and answers for you here in advance:
We are absolutely delighted to receive any inquiry from you—whether it concerns a show, an event, or a custom project! Simply get in touch with us via email or phone, and we will immediately check our availability for your desired date. If we still have capacity, we will tentatively hold the date for you—without obligation—while we discuss the details together.
Based on your wishes, the occasion, and the specific parameters, we will create a tailored artistic concept and a transparent price quote. Once everything aligns, we will finalize the details—such as travel arrangements, technical requirements, and rehearsal times. A contract will be signed by both parties, and from that moment on, the excitement for our collaboration can begin. Whoop!
For our passion is to transform your event into a truly special highlight with our finest Monalaura artistry.
Yes, absolutely! We love developing creative concepts and incorporating your brand message into our shows. Depending on the type of event and your specific vision, we will work together to find the perfect solution. One option, for example, would be to showcase your brand values through our acts: “trust, teamwork, discipline, lightness, or joy” are just a few of the themes we can express artistically.
Another option would be to stylishly project your company logo in the background of our show—subtly and elegantly. Whether for branding, conveying a specific message, or a custom adaptation of your corporate identity, we are confident that we can create a unique, exclusive, and high-quality presentation that meets your expectations and delights your guests.
P.S. Our unique prop—the Cube—is, thanks to its geometric shape, a recognizable element that pairs ideally with many logos or brand images. Perhaps this could be an option for you as well?
No—we are more than just artistic performers on stage. Beyond our passion for the performing arts, we are also creative entrepreneurs, circus educators, fitness and yoga coaches, world travelers, and best friends—bringing with us a wealth of experience from the events and entertainment industry.
Would you like to offer your guests or clients something more than just breathtaking show moments? How about a workshop that inspires both body and mind? Handstands as a creative method for training a shift in perspective. Flexibility—not only of the body, but also as a symbol of agility in the workplace. The possibilities are endless!
Are you planning a unique evening and in need of support with professional show creation? With our network of artists, venues, and technicians—cultivated over many years—we would be delighted to assist you in developing your event.
We are also available for photo and video campaigns, interviews, keynotes, or private training sessions—creative, professional, and always with that signature Hanseatic *monalaura* touch. As we’ve said before: We look forward to receiving any inquiries from you!
The costs for our artistic performances depend on various factors, such as the type of acts, the number of performances, and the individual requirements of your event.
We would be delighted to provide you with a tailored and transparent proposal that covers every detail and is perfectly aligned with your specific needs and budget. We are happy to advise you on which acts and formats would best suit your show and your audience. Our extensive experience working with corporate clients, agencies, and high-profile events enables us to bring even the most demanding—or even wildest—requests to life. After all, in the circus of old, even the impossible was possible!
With us, you book not just a performance, but an experience that makes your event unforgettable—creative, elegant, and professional.
Absolutely! We are flexible (and not just physically) and are happy to adapt to your vision to perfectly round off your event. Particularly for themed evenings or custom-designed events, we aim to enrich your overall concept through our art. We maintain our own repertoire of costumes for you to choose from. Furthermore, a selection of songs is available for our acts, or you are welcome to provide your own music choices—entirely according to your preferences.
Do you already have a clear concept or theme for your event? Then we look forward to hearing your creative ideas and integrating them into our performance!
This depends, among other things, on whether you have chosen an aerial or a ground-based act. We require slightly more time for the aerial setup, as it is somewhat more complex. The exact duration is influenced by the specific conditions at your chosen venue. As a general rule, the setup takes no longer than 30 minutes. We will send you the music tracks and lighting plots in advance to ensure your technical team is optimally prepared. Once on-site, only a brief live check is required from our end.
If you would like to stage a more elaborate production featuring us—complete with lighting, sound, and special effects such as fog or similar elements—we would be delighted to assist you.
To ensure that our performance runs safely and smoothly, there are several important technical requirements—depending on whether you choose an aerial act or a ground act.
For our aerial performances, we require a rigging point with a minimum height of 4.60 m, as well as a structurally certified point with a safe working load (SWL) capacity of 250 kg. The suspension point must be easily and safely accessible—for example, via a ladder or other means of access. For our ground-based acts, we require a level surface of at least 3 x 3 m, ideally covered with a dance floor.
For specific questions or regarding unique circumstances at your venue, we are available at any time to provide a personalized consultation. We are also happy to coordinate directly with your on-site technical team to clarify all details and ensure that everything is perfectly prepared.
To ensure our performance can unfold its full magic, beyond the technical requirements, we have a few additional small requests that help us transform Mona & Laura into the radiant duo monalaura. We require a heated, clean room for warming up, applying makeup, and changing costumes. We also always appreciate artistic catering—and rest assured, we are delightfully uncomplicated in this regard. Furthermore, if your event takes place outside of Berlin or Hamburg, we require accommodation.
Please feel free to book us anywhere in the world! After all, traveling is one of the greatest pleasures of our profession. Whether near or far, we bring along not only our performances but also our passion and energy. Within Germany, we prefer to travel by train. But don’t worry: we don’t travel with much luggage—and even our special “Cube” prop has fit into every single (!) car we’ve encountered so far.
We are also ready to support events outside of Germany. Even with jet lag, you can count on us to take the stage with 100% energy and professionalism. Our suitcases are practically never fully unpacked—so:
Where should our next trip take us?
Absolutely! Please get in touch with us, and together we can discuss the possibilities. It is deeply important to us to bring our acts out into the world—regardless of whether the audience consists of 5 or 50,000 spectators.
