** Book a classy/jazzy piano performance or ask for a beat-driven dance party, whichever suits your event. Chance brings his own portable grand piano, shown below. It's a custom stage prop with a keyboard inside. And YES it will fit through the door! Then it goes back in the minivan at the end of the night. Full sound system and stage lighting also included.
