“Eric dots a wonderful job for our event!
He entertained or guests with fire, stilts, magic balls AND juggling. Worth every penny! ”
Henry The Juggler
Overview
2 Great Shows:
Henry the Juggler: "Defying the Laws of Gravity", a hilarious, silent, audience involved juggling show for all ages. Henry juggles any number of balls, clubs, flaming torches, members of the audience . . . Each show is followed by a free workshop where the audience can learn to juggle.
and
"A Passion for Birds", a unique, interpretive program helping people to understand and connect with birds and wildlife. Using masks, comedy, and loads of audience participation, it explores how and why birds have adapted to their environment. Participants get to don the masks and soar as Eagles, stalk as Herons and swim as Puffins. Fits science curriculum standards perfectly.

May 15, 2020Juggling for a mixed group of adults and children
According to my daughter, she had never seen her 4 1/2 year old son laugh so hard in his life. Henry was delightful. He was right on top of everything- confirmation of the event, making sure he knew what we wished in terms of performance, managing the COVID 19 situation by performing outside (in very high winds), showing up early on his stilts and ending with wands of fire. Picture my little ones yelling, "No! You can't play with fire!" And then watching and laughing with hands covered over their eyes, peeking through gapped fingers. They have been pretend juggling since with imaginary objects, telling everyone to get out of the way. We want Henry back when it is safe to have him close by and let the kids try alongside- except for the fire part. Thank you, Henry!

Testimonials
Thank you for your charming, whimsical and funny performance at the Lenox Club last Friday, which was enjoyed by all our guests.
– Julianna Field, Fundraiser
Your sense of the audience is perfect; your inclusion of audience participation welcome, and your mastery of your art is a joy to watch. It is a rare performer who could hold everyone silently spellbound while using no words, but you did it.
– Jo Ann Bourquard, Librarian
Henry has performed several times at the Wellfleet Public Library and the performance was a huge success. He provided the exact kind of program that we so value here in Wellfleet, one that thrilled children of all ages and provided much needed family entertainment for full time and summer residents as well as vacationing families. We are very eager to invite Henry to Wellfleet next summer.
