ABOUT
Brad Cummings
“Everyone had an invisible playmate when they were young but mine used to talk back…and everyone else was able to hear him.”
The ranting of a mad child? Not at all. These are the words of Brad Cummings when asked to describe his early fascination with ventriloquism. A fascination that would lead him to become one of today’s most successful and innovative ventriloquists.
The Act
From his early days learning his craft in comedy clubs to main stage showrooms in Las Vegas, Atlantic City and Lake Tahoe, Brad brings a fresh, clean and original approach to his comedy and ventriloquism. His comical cast may include a precocious baby dinosaur, a teenage space traveler looking for intelligent life on Earth, a tough talking ‘made guy’ who insists he was ‘made’ by Geppetto, Jack Nicholson in his new role portraying the famous Jack In The Box toy and don’t be surprised if Brad uses members of the audience to showcase his ‘throwing voice’ skills.

Tomorrow
Brad’s journey in the entertainment business is far from over. With a cast of two other notable ventriloquists showcasing the art form in a 90 minute variety extravaganza to the development of Brad’s one-man show telling the story of his ups and downs in showbusiness, Brad Cummings has still a lot more to say…and a good part of the time without even moving his lips.
Today
All of the above mentioned is but a precursor for what Brad Cummings has become today. He has more than conquered the art of ventriloquism, he has taken it to a new plateau. With his innovative approach, unusual characters, and unique presentation, it’s no doubt that he is now a recognizable face in the media. His many television appearances (THE LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN, EVENING AT THE IMPROV, COMEDY ON THE ROAD, CAROLINE’S COMEDY HOUR, COMIC STRIP LIVE, THE VICKI SHOW, THE JERRY LEWIS TELETHON) have allowed millions of people to witness his ground-breaking style of comedy ventriloquism. No wonder the prestigious SMITHSONIAN MAGAZINE called him “one of today’s top ventriloquists.
