"Doc Swan - Magical Comedy and Variety Acts" is a somewhat self-explanatory phrase.  However, if it's details you're after, good.   Doc loves it when people ask about him.

His show begins with a fast and furious JUGGLING act.....full of comedy, and done to music.   "No sideshow was complete without a FIRE-EATER,"  Doc informs his audience, "and we have one of the best".   ("We" do.  Doc has won numerous awards with this act).  CHAPAUGRAPHY is an old, old act made new by Doc - where he tells his life story while making 13 different hats out of one piece of felt.   ESCAPING FROM HANDCUFFS  is not as easy as Doc may have thought, and   the audience is delighted to his unexpected methods!  AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION comes next where a volunteer becomes the star of (and usually steals) the show.  Demonstrating his powers of  ESP has the audience laughing and scratching their heads.  A contemporary version of a Houdini favorite, escaping from a STRAIT JACKET is performed as Doc dances  his way out in record time . The BAREFOOT WALK ON BROKEN GLASS BOTTLES is presented in Doc's own unique way...with one audience member riding piggy-back (and the rest howling with laughter)!

MUSICAL SAW PLAYING... ORIGAMI...HAND SHADOWS...LARIAT SPINNING... no telling what might pop up in Doc's show...

Punctuated with puns, sight-gags and TONS of  tongue-in-cheek humor,  no two shows are exactly alike.  New material is added constantly.  (In fact, in the venues where Doc performs 30-minute or less shows, two completely different performances can be presented)!

Whether he is high in the air, or firm on the ground behind his push cart, audiences young and old love Doc and his "strolling" acts (especially when they know they'll be getting a  free balloon animal)!
