His entourage consists of world-class jugglers, Diamond the Shetland Pony and over 30 performing pets including house cats and dogs, geese, white doves and parrots. Each pet in the show has been rescued from an animal shelter and given a new life! They love to perform their skills and stunts on stage. Watch pets jumping, dancing, flying through the air, or balancing in ways you’ve never seen before.
