Biography
“The best walkabout costumes I’ve ever seen.”
Jules, Continental Drifts
This playful little hatchling is accompanied by eccentric pet shop owner Bill Oddity, a travelling salesman with a menagerie of the galaxy’s most extraordinary creatures.
Pongo is a unique animatronic creature, custom-built to allow for life-like animations, from the subtlest fluttering of Pongo’s eyelids to his magnificent leaps and bounds.
Having accidentally been transported to our world with his dimension-hopping pet shop, Bill Oddity must find a way home by any means possible… and if he can shift some stock on the way, so much the better.
Prospective customers will be introduced to Pongo – an 8 ft tall flightless bird that is allergic to feathers, a mint condition Shroedringer’s cat (which may or may not be in its original packaging) and a host of other critters that are cared for by, or otherwise infest, Bill.
Pongo is perfect for: Festivals, family fun days, children’s events, town centre entertainment, shopping centre entertainment, parades, carnivals, fairs, fetes, animal-themed events, birthdays, private functions
