Todd Charles takes the stage with a fast paced
and high-energy blend of variety comedy that makes his show truly unique.
Todd's creative vision combines his talents as a comedian, musician,
juggler, and magician, resulting in a stage show that captivates audiences
all over the world!
From Off-Broadway to national TV, Todd Charles'
stage show combines backgrounds in standup and musical comedy, theater,
circus arts, and music. You may find him spinning a tale or a tune, balancing
a ladder or a chair on his chin, spinning plates on his Viking helmet,
or spinning a ball on his banjo, WHILE PLAYING IT!
Accompanied by his own studio-produced soundtrack,
Todd Charles takes you "to the islands" for a little Jamaican
Juggling and "to the Far East" to experience the art of the
Chinese Diablo. Then, it's on to a mystery storybook land.... "A
land far, far away"....inside of his musical Hand-Shadow Theater!
There, he performs over a dozen Hand-Shadow Impressions on cue, while
narrating an hilarious fictional story from beside the shadow screen!
This is a show full of sharp wit, whimsical
fun, and wonderful things like: crashing cymbals, American flags, raining
confetti, and Rock & Roll! With cameos by Ed Sullivan, Steven Spielberg's "E.T.",
President Nixon, and Bart Simpson, the audience will never know what's
next! There's even a juggling rabbit and an opera singing elephant! (State
of the art digital equipment allows Todd to control the audio cues while
performing.)
Throughout the show, Todd Charles treats the
crowd to a bit of "serious foot-stompin' banjo"! To that, he
adds just the right touch of magic and audience participation, which
may include an on-stage assistant chosen from the audience.
Todd Charles rounds out the show with his
own hearty rendition of "Dueling Banjos", in which he duels
with the audience, a burping baby, and barn-yard animals that sing on
cue and zoom around his head on a spinning helmet, leaving the audience
roaring with side splitting laughter!!!
