I have had the opportunity to see Thom — who is quickly becoming a defining figure in the St Louis circus and variety community — perform a variety of different acts in many different contexts, including the St Louis Renaissance Faire, walkaround entertainment for Circus Flora, burlesque/variety shows, bar mitzvahs, and professional circus environments. In all of these contexts, Thom creates a performer-audience dynamic that puts virtuosic skill into an approachable and relatable context for his viewers. As an audience member, you will feel a connection to his lovable(if somewhat bumbling) character throughout the performance, and you will leave laughing and impressed. I could not recommend Thom more highly for any event at any venue — I guarantee you will enjoy the show!
