Steve August and Maria The Snake Babe

Las Vegas has a style all it's own. A reputation for extravagance and class. Wild nights and hot days. An adult playground in the desert. It is that reason you expect the best from it's entertainment and with Steven Lee August and Maria the SnakeBabe you get the success formula that has made Las Vegas the entertainment capitol of the world.

Yes, there is a formula to successful shows in Las Vegas. Magic, comedy, sexy showgirls and juggling have been the center focus of almost every show since the days when Sigfried and Roy first made our town their home. Lance Burton, carries that tradition along with multi-million dollar production shows currently entertaining audiences nightly on the neon strip.

Is it a formula that is over done? Far from it! Ask any tourist what they still expect to see in a show and you will find that sexy showgirls, magic, comedy and juggling still sell the ticket.

Our premier artists are Steve August & Maria. Their signature style is that the Magic they offer has a hint of Juggling. Do I need to add that the Dangerous Juggling displays have a hint of Magic?

Picture this, in the first twelve minutes you will see:

- Steve balance a flaming Bar-B-Que Grill on his chin!
- Juggle battle-axes while standing on a Maria supported by her head and ankles only.
- Snakes magically appear from props that other performers can only juggle.
- Maria hold fire in her teeth!

Juggling and Magic Mix - Opening Segment
Also great alone as an opening act for your headliner.

Transformation Quick Change, Fire juggling, Fire Sword Balance Calliope music is background to several circus performers who dance, Flip and jump about the stage decorated in a carnival fashion. This feeling is about to change. As the music dies down a beautiful woman appears in a black cloak. She unveils herself to stop one of the corny circus clowns from juggling. With a kiss the clown falls, then via quick-change transforms into a thrilling action packed performer. His opening is the juggling of torches and the balancing of flaming swords. This is what most jugglers would call their finale. Imagine what is to follow!

Light as a Feather Magical animal production
Juggling can be difficult when an item is an almost transparent silk that weighs not much more than a feather. Steve is handed three colorful sheer squares of silk pulled from Maria's body to juggle in a pattern that allows them to slowly float together in a ball to produce a large parrot. This is an original combination of both juggling and magic that is seen only in Steve's show.

Juggling
This segment alone has taken years to perfect. Truly the most difficult part of the show for Steve. It's fast. It's hard. This is where the audience develops a full understanding of just how difficult juggling can be.

Bar-B-Que Original Fire Magic
Another signature stunt for Steve that has been on network television over and over again. Steve August will balance a flaming Bar-B-Que grill on his chin as it shoots out bursts of flames into the air that reach up to nine feet. How does a performer hope to top this? Well if you're Steve and Maria August, you simply reach into where the fire was and pull out a live 12-foot Snake. Fire & Snakes. Two elements combined that fascinate audiences every time. This stunt combines Juggling skill, danger and magic, all in one. A visual sight not easily forgotten.

SnakeBabe (strolling with a variety live animals)
Our Beautiful snake charmer Maria will charm and delight your guest as she lovingly displays her variety of exotic animals. She will start the evening greeting at the entrance to your event with the smallest and almost cutest of her little snakes, a Royal Python. As the night progresses she trades off the Royal Python for larger Boa Constrictors, huge lizards or Tarantulas and Scorpions that crawl across her body. This also includes a costume change for Maria. But wait! It's not over yet! Maria the SnakeBabe will bring out the prize of her collection a huge 12 foot white albino python. Allowing everyone the photo opportunity they have been awaiting for. Costumes available to match any event theme.

Magic
If your tired of magicians saying "Pick-a-Card" then this duo is for you! Maria delivers the magic and Steve adds the comedy as they go table to table making their kind of magic with spiders, snakes and you.

Juggler
Juggling has always been a favorite in Las Vegas and around the world by giving your guest something special to look at without the interruption of your meals or conversations. Your featured juggler Is Steve August. He has been seen juggling and performing fire stunts on Late Night with David Letterman and on ABC's The Most Awesome Acts On Earth. For your evening he will juggle all the favorites plus something special. Bowling balls and razor sharp knives. Dangerous and fun.

Showgirl
She is tall, She is beautiful and she is at your event dressed to your specifications in glamorous show attire. Every show in Las Vegas has them and now you do too. Our showgirls offer several varieties of costumes. Conservative, full bottom body suits to the sexiest bikini styles you see in the multi-million dollar extravaganzas on the strip. They are available to meet and greet at your event or pose with your guests for a photo. Bring your own photographer or we can supply one for you.

Model/ Hostess
Before Maria became the SnakeBabe she was a model. She still enjoys helping out in convention booths, help hostess your event, or maybe you need someone to help hand out those awards at your banquet. From a glamorous gown to booty shorts with your logoed shirt, from a business suit to jeans and a tank top, she has the wardrobe to fit your booth or event. When your looking for a model that is not only beautiful, but intelligent and professional, Maria should be your first request.
