Performances
I have been Producing or Performing in a show of one
type or another for well over 25 years. I have worked with cast and crew
for several and done several versions of solo shows for audiences of 10
to 10 thousand. The further
down this page you go the farther back in time you go. You can book the
first few shows but older shows are included for historical purposes only.
The availability status of every show is at the bottom of it's
description. This is not a complete list it is just a few of my more
recent shows and will change as shows are added or dropped.
"The Dangerous Blades of Phoenix Blaze"
"Dangerous Blades" is currently bookingl! After headlining East Coast Renaissance fairs for over 10 years with "Fire & Steel"
I decided it was time for a whole new show. With all new costumes, props and routines the new show will feature
more sword swallowing, sword balancing and dangerous blade work.

Performance Artist My current PA show is
titled "Bolt" and can run anywhere from 20 minutes to 2 days. I spend the
time welding and grinding and hammering on a powered movement metal
sculpture while running a conversation with the spectators. I can push any
crowd into my stories and art and the finished piece is left for the venue
or patron. I generally set up a stage area (a 3 sided steel box) at least
a day in advance as the space is an integral part of the show. Flames,
sparks, smoke and VERY LOUD NOISES are generated during the
show. Pieces may be themed for the event to a certain degree but final
artistic interpretation is always left in my hands.

Outlaw Builders Extreme Toy Challenge This
is a new show themed for the gear head crowd. This is an ensemble show
that features a local (to the venue) school team of up to 10 kids in a
"Monster Garage" style challenge. A working shop with railing for
spectator separation and safety screening is set up and the kids build an
Extreme toy during the event guided by a Master fabricator. In anywhere
from 3 to 10 days we build a radical toy in front of the audience thus
providing live automotive themed entertainment throughout the event. This
show has met with great enthusiasm and was premiered at The Food Lion Auto
Fair the largest Auto show in America to rave reviews. TV
personalities Big Schwag and Bodydrop are available to lend their own
special touch to this show that features builders and employees from the
popular Discovery channel shows Monster Garage, Monster House and Monster
Nation. The theme of this show is to get school age children interested in
fabrication and donate tools and funds to the school system. All vehicles
and prizes are provided by sponsors and end up in the school system
involved with each build. Click this link to visit
the Outlaw Builders website for pictures. We are currently
booking the 2009 and 2010 tours and the dates are filling fast! Contact us NOW for more information on
booking the Outlaw Builders Challenge.
RoboJoust
Watch as over 50 robots in weight
classes up to 220 pounds fight to see who will be the best of the best!
Teams from around the world vie to compete in our twice yearly street
fight format robot competitions. Top name competitors bring color and
technology together with education and plain out smash-em-up fun!
RoboJoust is a large venue show with a production crew of over 15 people
and robot teams numbering over 150 people. A large amount of space is
needed for pits and arena plus safety and inspection areas. RoboJoust is a
founding member of the RFL and the largest robotic competition in
Nevada. Production of RoboJoust is on Hiatus.
Xoma
A disturbing jaunt through a "trained"
humans act. A daringly sexy female trainer in black leather whips Xoma
through his routine. Raised in the Borneo jungle by a tribe of monkeys
Xoma is just a little different. This show contains graphic demonstrations
of sword swallowing, fire eating and disturbing insertions into the human
body. While being graphic, intense and adult based it is not adults only.
It can be but usually isn't. Outdoor shows can get fire breathing finales
with 35' flames and indoor shows get routines that cannot be done outside
such as sword balancing. Xoma does not talk. The entire show is done to
music and includes spectacular Pyro effects.

Fire & Steel
A 20 minute show that can
be performed up to 4 times a day. Sword swallowing, fire eating, fire
breathing, ice picks up the nose and MORE MORE MORE! Extravagant period
costuming and script make this a true 16th century experience. This show
recreates a Renaissance Jongleur's show and is 20 minutes of
"edge-of-your-seat" excitement and drama. This show has evolved over the
years into a top billing tightly run show that appears to be a train wreck
on stage with a freak running the shovel. This show is very graphic and
disturbing in nature and is intended for an adult audience. While many
children flock to my show several times a day I always explain that if
they understand my jokes, "It's not MY fault". I am one of less than 25
working sword swallowers in the US and have been performing this show
since 1987. Everything I do on stage is real. The swords are real steel
and the fire is real hot. I am NOT a magician and I don't magish. I could
actually cause myself a fatal injury at least 7 times per show. It's the
price I pay for my art. Production of Fire & Steel is on
Hiatus.
The Abbey Lane Puppeteers
A Renaissance
themed puppet show suitable for all ages. Original scripts are all comedy
based and make heavy use of period style puppet slap stick. A 12' long by
8' tall stage windows the show and should be able to be assembled at least
2 hours before the show. This is an ensemble show with a production crew
of 2 to 5 people. Abbey Lane Puppeteers has been sold to the crew
who are still touring with it.
Some of my credits include; Monster Garage and
Monsterize Everything on the Discovery Channel and I am still featured in
some commercials for those shows. I was a featured builder in Battlebots
and BattleBots commercials for over 2 years. I had a very popular and
winning robot on Robot Wars Extreme Warriors in London. I also appeared in
Robotica for Original Productions and the Discovery channel. I have done
several local news shows as a diplomat for differing events around the
world including various radio spots for advertising and I was kicked off
the set of Romper Room as a child. I have Ringling clown training and
several years of solo and group performances with many circuses as a
clown. I am a competent percussionist with a penchant for tympani and hand
played drums. I have produced shows in such venues as The Riviera Hotel
& casino, The Plaza Hotel & casino and Castaway's Resort casino,
The Mount Hope Estate and The Castle of Muskogee to name a few.
Thanks for taking the time to visit! "May our roads
meet on a sunny day."
