Ray Crowe is one of Australia’s leading contemporary magicians. And his shadow puppet show has become (as I understand it) his signature closing.
The popularity of Ray Crowe amongst his peers and audience is such that he was invited to become the first ever Australian Magician to be on the now famous NBC TV Special – “Worlds Greatest Magicâ€.
The show was viewed by over 20 million people worldwide and Crowe ended up getting a standing ovation from the 3,000 magicians in attendence.

If anyone’s seen America’s Got Talent this season there was a ventriloquist who could sing just about anything and did so with so much charisma and skill that you actually got used to the idea that the puppet was singing. I bet we’re going to be seeing a lot of his youtube coverage soon :)
Just googled and his name is Terry Fator, here are a few youtube links of his. One of the few acts I really thought I’d take the kids to go see :) His ability to get such range with his mouth closed is just mind blowing!
Here’s a link to him doing “What a wonderful world” as well :)
Dude! John – that was so awesome!! My daughter, Sammie, and I just LOVED it!! And that song is such a sweet song, too! Sammie says that she would give anything to be able to do that!
The power went out in our house last night and when I gave my daughter the flashlight, the FIRST thing she did was try to do her own shadow puppets. She was even singing the song. I completely forgot we watched it the night before, it was adorable :)
