1, 2, 3 bend!
It’s a fun trick to show to kids. First you bend as much as possible. Then you push just above your knees for about 15 seconds. Then you bend again and you’ll see that you’re much more flexible! Of course they don’t believe you. Let them do it themself and they’ll see that the CrazyWaiterMeer lezen over “1, 2, 3 bend!”
Funny Interpretative Dance: ‘Don’t Stop Me Now’
We know him from his fabulous version of Torn but now David Armand has an own item in Fast and Loose. He has to mime a song and other people have to guess which song it is. There are a lot of other videos of his mime in this programmes if you search Youtube! (via)
Real magic
Of course we CrazyWaiters do a lot of magic but in this video Roy from Goochelen doe je zo teaches you how to do real magic: letting appear a glas of champagne from under a towel! It’s in Dutch, but pretty self explaining (I hope)
Expert Translation… or not?
This improvisation can also be done with real guests (or collegues), with real conversations. You “translate” what the other says by using you’re fantasy, in a real language or not. A lot of variations is possible, also depending on your own knowledge of the languages and inspiration. You can add up fun with non-verbal signsMeer lezen over “Expert Translation… or not?”
Imaginary friend
One of the things to make laugh your (little) guests is an imaginairy friend. It’s a bit like the Phantom of the restaurant, but this friend is “talking” and “acting” and you have a conversation 🙂
Viva i burattini! [IT]
Viva i burattini (Long live the puppets!) is a group of Italians who play for kids. I was on holiday in Milan last summer and I saw Flavio Collicelli in the parc, playing for the Italian kids. Fantastic to see the  interaction between them and Flavio which was very lively. A great inspiration for this cameriere pazzo!
Playing with accents
Today I was seater. I take the guest to the table and explain the buffet:”et voila, l’entrĂ©e, l’entrĂ©e, plat chaud, dessert“. She:”attendez monsieur je vais le traduire pour les autres… l’entrĂ©e l’entrĂ©Ă© plat chaud dessert“. WTF!!! Being a polyglot isn’t easy, you have to fight against your accent because they don’t understand you. French isMeer lezen over “Playing with accents”
The phantom of the restaurant
No no!!! Don’t touch that table! Underneath is the phantom, who will escape. He lets everything fall down. Don’t you see the little broken glass on the floor? It’s his work! No no! Don’t look underneath the napkin! It’s the spirit of a waiter who died from love hurt. His girlfriend, a beautiful Italian waitressMeer lezen over “The phantom of the restaurant”
The CrazyWaiter Knows Everything
We are used to work a lot with people, so we are very good in reading them, since most communication is non verbal. Great fun is to play the mentalist. The CrazyWaiter Knows Everything! In fact you use some tricks. The most important is cold reading. Without prior knowledge of a person, a practiced coldMeer lezen over “The CrazyWaiter Knows Everything”
