What’s the best advice you’ve gotten?
My best advice was: “Focus on your own journey. It’s a marathon and not a sprint.”

I was advised to take acting classes or get involved in a community theatre group. Good way to get comfortable on stage.
Favorite Thing About Being A Ventriloquist
What is your favorite thing about being a ventriloquist? For me it’s the ability to keep creating nonstop characters while combining my love of comedy. You guys. Go!
As I perform primarily for seniors, I love the feeling I’ve brightened their day.
Unruly Kids
How do you deal with unruly kids in your audience? I find being good on my feet helps. (Having comebacks etc). What helps with you?

I never do comebacks with kids because it makes you the bad person. I just address what they are doing in a firm but still friendly voice. On occasion I have asked “Is there a parent with this young person? I think they’re bored, and maybe they want to do something else “
Joke books are only a springboard
One of my mentors told me the problem with dialogue books as they were written BY someone else FOR someone else. You can find nuggets in there but make sure you adapt them to fit you and your puppet.

Make contact with your audience
Otherwise you might as well be practicing in front of a mirror
