Hire a Camel. Obviously.
Prince Amir & Kitty the Camel — Animatronic Walkabout Entertainment for Events, Festivals & Corporate Occasions
The Act
Out of the shimmering desert heat rides His Minuscule Majesty, Prince Amir — meerkat royalty of questionable authority, perched atop the world's most unimpressed camel.
Kitty the Camel has opinions. She shares them freely. Prince Amir, assisted by his long-suffering camel herder, is doing his very best to maintain the kind of regal dignity that simply refuses to stay maintained. The result is a roving comedy double act — part pantomime, part street theatre, entirely unforgettable — that draws crowds wherever it wanders.
Guests can stroke the camel, have their palm read by the herder, and do their bit to prop up Amir's spectacularly fragile ego. Nobody leaves without a photo. Nobody leaves without a story.
What Happens at Your Event
Prince Amir and Kitty are a fully interactive walkabout act — they roam your event space, finding their audience rather than waiting for one. The act works beautifully as a meet-and-greet, a crowd-warmer, or a standalone centrepiece. It's high-impact, highly photogenic, and generates the kind of spontaneous audience reaction that no stage act can replicate.
The animatronic camel puppet is built and performed to the highest professional standard, with a level of craft that consistently stops people in their tracks. As one recent client put it: "You were absolutely fantastic and totally stole the show."
Perfect For
This act is a natural fit for Arabian Nights events, Bollywood and Moroccan-themed occasions, festivals, shopping centre activations, corporate hospitality, pantomime, children's literary events, fantasy and storybook themes, and Christmas experiences. It has performed to audiences across the UK and internationally, including a seven-week residency at the Remal International Festival in Kuwait, where Prince Amir & the Camel were commissioned as headline performers celebrating A Thousand and One Nights.
