MatVelvet and Cahrlie Show... I have a cape

Welcome to The Mat Velvet & Charlie web site.

Well we mangaed 54 shows over 18 days at the Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto. Great weather, great times and great audiences made for a fun if not slightly burnt forehead time...

We are off to London to Film a 3 minute version of the show for The Slammer on BBC. We'll keep you posted or the air date so check back soon.

Just returned from Saint John, New Brunswick. It was the 20th anniversary of the Street Festival and it was great time, thanks Saint John.

We've been wrapped up in many projects, including directing a new show with the highly talented, Duo Voltart, Mercedes Chenard and Eric B, many coprorate events and getting involved in those half time shows . . .

Take a look at our latest news page... to see where when and why.

:: THE SHOW ::

Shockingly funny and astoundingly skilful, Mat Velvet, star and wheel god, selflessly shares his talent with you.

Monsieur Velvet sports a superb moustache, oozes charisma, and has a little tag along... for the sake of ease lets call him Charlie. Mat, smooth as Velvet, tolerates a small, eager, and annoying wannabe with a huge secret.

This original blend offers an astounding display of acrobatic prowess wrapped in a hilarious crinkly wrapper with a stunning twist at the end.

Dominique is one of the few female German Wheel artists in the world. Martin isn't. 
Dominique is beautiful and Martin... well you know.
