‘It’s Your Life!’ is a show that is full of surprises………..

suitable either a personal tribute to a valued company member or as a unique way of promoting a company or a specific product.

Working from a detailed client brief, our writers produce a show that entertains and informs as well as fully involving its audience in its subject matter.

The ‘It’s Your Life’ Show

It may look like any other drinks party or dinner, but some one in the room is about to get the surprise of their life! As the wine flows and the laughter reaches a crescendo, our heavily disguised comedy host steps forward from the shadows with his big red book and informs your chosen victim that they are now the star guest on 'It's Your Life!'

To much applause and merriment, the guests make their way through to the 'It's Your Life' studio for the start of the show.

With everyone seated, our host begins this unique and revealing tribute to your illustrious and much-loved work colleague.

The show itself takes an affectionate and extremely amusing look back at the career of your chosen victim. Working from a detailed client brief, we create a show that will involve not only your chosen victim, but also many of your other work colleagues as well, who may well appear on the show as pre-informed 'special guests' - and some who have no idea that they are going to be appear on the show at all! By using all the funny stories and personality traits of your chosen victim, we are not only able to pay tribute to them, but also to your company and fellow work colleagues.

Research

Before the event we arrange a research meeting with you. We learn about your industry, your company, the conference theme and gossip and funny stories about your company personnel. For example dress sense, the office flirt, nick names, who’s always running late, holiday stories and who did something they’d would rather forget at last years conference! All this information is used in a very light-hearted way – we NEVER offend!

The more information you give us, the more we will use! Our writer will then create a personalised Awards Ceremony script especially for your group.

The Event

There are many ways that the awards ceremony can be introduced. For example, if the awards ceremony is going to be part of a lunch, or evening event, guests are informed that after the meal there is going to be a talk from a guest speaker on a company-related subject.

In order to appear authentic the speech could have been written by the client. However, just when the guests are least expecting it, the guest speaker throws the speech over his shoulder and reveals that he is really your host and that everyone are guests at the company’s annual Awards Ceremony!

The Awards Ceremony theme tune is then played, the lights dim, the backdrop falls revealing a glittering curtain and our host is ready to go!

Alternatively, the awards ceremony can simply be introduced via an offstage announcement for a more instant impact.

The Event (continued)

Our host then performs a hilarious opening routine about the guests and the company and also talks about the awards hinting at some of the categories that the guests have been nominated in.

We usually have 10 – 12 awards, all of which are specifically created for your company. For example, the awards could range from ‘Best Excuse For Turning Up Late For Work’, to ‘Most Promising Newcomer’ to ‘The Deal of the Decade’. The nature, tone and emphasis of the awards entirely depends on your company and its personnel.

Throughout the awards our host reveals the nominees in each category and explains why they have been nominated.

He may also invite some of the guests to present individual awards. This gives us the opportunity to write a very amusing speech about that person while at the same time promoting and rewarding their profile.

The format of our Awards Ceremony is entirely flexible, so if someone has a particular talent or skill, we can incorporate this in to the event. For example, a person with a great singing voice could appear as their favourite pop idol and perform one of their biggest hits. In other words if we know someone has a particular talent, we will try and incorporate it into the show.

We can have actors pretending to be long lost friends of some of the award nominees, involve the guests in a celebrity version of ‘Ready Steady Cook’ with ‘Nigella Lawson’, or, if there is a budding singer amongst the group, give them the chance to duet with ‘Barbara Streisand’!

Our main objective is to include as many of the guests as possible and to produce an event that has a long-lasting and beneficial impact on everyone.
