Remote firing/slaving 1DX II, 5D mk III?

Hello,

 

I'm going to be be doing some dance photography in the near future. I'd like to place one DSLR on a tripod with a wide-enough lens to capture the full stage/corps de ballet while holding or monopodding a second body with a longer lens to catch principal dancers from a different angle. I'll be working with 1DX II, 5D III, and 5D IV, so any combination of those will be acceptable. I need a way of firing the tripod camera whenever I fire the one I'm holding. No need to be able to adjust the remote camera's exposure settings--I'll just have to adjust that directly at the beginning of each scene. Is there any kind of remote firing/slave system that would enable me to do this? Thanks for any info.
