Cryptid Kid

My performances - from the death-defying spectacle of fire breathing to the intriguing art of fire eating to sultry fire dancing - will leave audiences astonished, intrigued, and entertained. I create acts and costumes unique to each event, whether it be a wedding, party, or intimate gathering. Safety is my top priority. I am an insured performer with years of experience choreographing solo and group acts at a variety of indoor and outdoor venues. I work with those who book me to ensure that every act I perform is safe for myself and the audience.

I am a Chicago-based fire entertainer who has been performing for 5 years at private events, large-scale productions, and cabarets across the city. Originally a dancer by training, I fell in love with the weird and wonderful world of sideshow when I came to Chicago and have spent 5 years training under some of the best fire performers in the city to learn fire eating, fire breathing, and dancing with a variety of fire props. Safety is my top priority. I am an insured performer and serve on the Board of Directors for Chicago's fire spinning community, where I make sure that our public events attended by hundreds of people operate safely. I love creating custom acts for events that astonish, amaze, and inspire people.

Since each venue and act is different, I discuss the location and setup of each space in advance with event organizers to determine whether it is safe to perform fire. I am also available to conduct site visits. Outside venues are necessary for fire-breathing and ideal for dancing with fire props. Inside venues with adequate ventilation are necessary for fire-eating and appropriate for dancing with some fire props. I can bring my own speaker and music if necessary.
