Bob presents programs for all ages designed to bring people together for a joyful experience of pure fun.
Family Shows
Bob became a family performer because he loved the challenge of simultaneously entertaining children and adults. Growing up on Rocky and Bullwinkle, Bob was exposed to the wonders of presenting different kinds of humor in order to appeal to kids and grown-ups in the same audience.
In this great tradition, Bob performs for family audiences in community centers, performing arts centers, museums, nature centers, zoos, schools, libraries, and other venues where families are present. He uses storytelling, magic, juggling and audience participation as vehicles for building community by making families laugh and play together.
