SLOWSILVERMAN is…
…an old school originator of street robotics, Silver has developed his show over 30 years from street dance to promotional events and installations to shows on the international stage.
Taking influences from such diverse sources as contemporary mime, body popping, robotics and physical theatre his winning blend of audience interaction and improvisation has combined to produce the show you see today.
Recognised as one of the most original and engaging theatrical shows on the circuit…
…his shows are accessible to all audiences through its universal physical comedy.
With performances as far afield as Hong Kong, Singapore, Chicago, and Melbourne as well as most major European cities and festivals around the world his unique show has entertained and enthralled thousands.
Silver started out Robotic dancing 25 years ago…
…in his home town of Edinburgh, as part of the annual Edinburgh International Fringe Festival.
He moved to Amsterdam in 1987 where he was based for ten years. This gave him the opportunity to perform across the major cities of Europe.
His career took off when he won the International Festival of Mime Automats and became Europe?s number one in human robotics.
This led to a great deal of corporate work and advertising for major International companies around the world. Amongst these were Louis Vuitton, Rebook and Blaupunkt.
At the same time he expanded his repertoire of movement and worked humour and improvisation into his act. Over the years Silver has been invited to perform and take part at most of the International Festivals.
