The Human Slinky

"The human slinky, Veniamin, is a colorful and comical high-energy illusion.
Adults may try to visualize exactly where he is inside the costume; kids will love
the visual ness of the quadruped slinky as it rolls, sprawls, spills and dances across the stage.
" Honolulu Star- Bulletin, January 1998

Octopus Dance

Worm, crab, or fairy-tale creature? Veniamin from Romania enchants with body-magic.
The Dancer is actually dancing with the Octopus and it's long pointed sucker-arms caressing
the Dancer as she performs. Nothing has ever been seen like this before. It was created by Italian Artist Veniamin...

Audiences are astonished and surprised by what they see... Entertainment like you have never
seen before...anywhere... Now you can have this fantastic Act at your Facility...

"The Festival of Budapest revealed two attractions never see before in the ring... "The Octopussy" and "The Human Slinky".
The performers, "The Veniamin Duo", are the Rumanian couple Veronica Chicioroaga and Ioan Veniamin Oprea. The impressive
"Octopussy" is a tumultuous white and blue stylized adage act with Veniamin playing the role of the Octopus (male) and Veronica playing the Octopus female. "The Human Slinky", a swaying sculpture, was presented solo whereas normally
it is performed as a synchronous duo act.Veronica was injured while dancing with the Octopus the night before anyone realizing.
Veniamin, have force of the connections and the rhythm is very intense. The duo, with its animated creatures, work mainly in music halls, cabarets, cruising ships and for television. They have already been applauded in many capital cities. the two
visual acts with the king of dynamic and suggestive corporal expression which creates a vision of supernatural beings - of plastic poetry - have all the qualities necessary for a circus career."
