From the Prince of Wales, the Sultan of Brunei and the Royal family of Monaco, to world-renowned musicians and comedians, he has performed for and alongside a whole host of famous faces. His universal appeal has led to his appearance on television programmes broadcast across the globe, as well as in stage shows everywhere from the Edinburgh Festival to Nevada, Brazil and even Japan.
Combining the ancient art of clowning and the golden age of silent screen comedy, together with the contemporary techniques of respected physical theatre teachers Jacques Lecoq, Philippe Gaulier and Pierre Byland, he has been described as ‘a modern black and white bygone in a world of colour’, performing outstanding feats that are not only daring but also hysterically funny.
