Jim Mackenzie - Comedian With Mad Skills

Recently seen as the Mr. Cooper Juggler and on Season 2 of The Gong Show, Jim began juggling by the age of seven and was inspired early on by Laurel and Hardy, Buster Keaton, W.C. Fields and the Marx Bros. A Houston native, Jim began his professional performing career in 1986 at The Houston Festival as a busker. He has since developed his show at festivals, theme parks, comedy clubs and colleges around the country. In 2003, he won the regional division of Laff Across America, which lead to performances at the Las Vegas Comedy Festival. He has also performed with and served as Director of Clowning for Houston Grand Opera, performed at San Francisco’s legendary Pier 39 and appeared at the Houston Fringe Festival, where his show was chosen as a Producer’s Pick.

"I love that the act wasn't about the juggling... You really are a comedian with mad skill!s"

"He is professional, punctual, easy to work with, and above all the audience loves him! Whether he's making them gasp in circus suspense, or laugh hysterically, he always delights! Hire this man! (Just not on a date I need him!)
