Do you come from a Circus or Show Business background?

I do not come from a circus background, though I do come from a theatrical and artistic background which involves both actors and actresses, writers, dancers and musicians.

Tell us about yourself and your background!

I am primarily a saloon sideshow entertainer. My routine involves the eating of glass (both lightbulbs and wine glasses) as well as the drinking of glass cleaning products. Similarly it involves various contact routines with broken bottle glass such as dancing, stomping, grinding, and so forth. Several other eating routines are in my repertoire. though they are usually too much for most audiences so I do not perform them, and I am also both a dancer and an adequate contortion escapist.

I am twenty-six years old and spend as much time travelling as possible. Some would definitely define me as a crustie punk as a result, and I can usually be found wandering around various small festivals with a near empty bottle of Boones Farm apple wine in my hands and a cigar between my lips. It is generally pretty fantastic to be me.
