PAUL ZERDIN ON TOUR:
British comedian and master ventriloquist Paul Zerdin joked his way to a first-place finish on the 2015 season of America’s Got Talent, and now fans can catch his brilliant act in person. Zerdin’s sharp wit and amazing puppetry skills make for a side-splitting show full of wild characters, clever puns, and family-friendly wisecracks appropriate for fans of all ages. Whether he’s bringing hilarious puppets like bratty teen Sam or cranky old-timer Albert to life with his amazing ventriloquism skills, Zerdin does it all with seamless style and effortless ease, never missing a beat as he jumps from character to character. A veteran performer who has even made the Queen of England chuckle, Zerdin is a must-see for anyone who likes a good laugh.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
London-born Paul Zerdin caught the puppetry bug at an early age after being given a book on ventriloquism by legendary British comedian Ray Alan. During his teens he practiced throwing his voice in front of the mirror daily, eventually taking a job at a magic shop with an eye on becoming a children’s entertainer. At age 20 he landed a role as host of the Disney-produced show Rise and Shine, which paved the way for his first-place victory on Season 1 of reality TV competition The Big Big Talent Show. A string of high-profile gigs followed, including a performance for the British royal family. In 2015 he made a splash with stateside audiences as the winner of Season 10 of America’s Got Talent, a major victory that has fans dying to see him and his cast of characters on tour.

Paul was fantastic, as was the second comedian. We were a little disappointed with Darren McCarty, but we know that comedy is not what made him famous. We really liked The Strand -- first time we have been there. It was very clean, parking was easy and it was nice to have the bar attached. We will definitely look for more events hosted at that venue.
The Strand Theatre is great, maybe needs more advertising, Paul Zerdin was a class act but theatre not fully booked
What a great performer! Paul Zerdin is funny, captivating and charming. You will not be disappointed. A must see!!
Pif was everything I expected and more, the whole family was blown away. Paul overall was good but some of his jokes were dated. Like the hearing aid one, that’s been around for at least 30 years.
I am totally baffled by the tricks that he pulled off. He was defiantly a great performer.
We went to see Paul Zerdin and Piff the Dragon that were on America's Got Talent, and they were really funny. Paul is a very talented ventriloquist, and everyone should have a chance to see him live. I wished it would have last longer.
Both acts were great, enjoyed seeing them in person after watching AGT. We had awesome seats, but the rows were very long making getting in & out difficult.
I Loved the Show with the 2 of them and a few friends....., Lol This was a Great Show, lot's of Fun
Paul Zerdin and Piff the Magic Dragon was fun from start to finish. Haven't laughed that much in a long time. Hope they return to MN in the future, I would love to go and see them again.
