New York Variety All-Stars

The New York Variety All-Stars are a post-modern blast from vaudeville's past. They've crafted a bombastic show filled with the best and most exciting acts that will thrill and delight all audiences. Sword swallowing, ventriloquism, feats of strength, Vegas style illusions along with plenty of audience participation are just some of what you’ll see in their show.

Adam RealMan
One of the premier sideshow acts in New York City and beyond. Adam’s masterful blend of humor and tension are why audiences find him so appealing. Whether he’s bending steel with his bare hands, inflating a thick rubber water-bottle until it explodes, eating half a pack of lit cigarettes or swallowing swords, those watching will no doubt cheer him on with verve and anticipation. Adam’s large muscular physique is paired well with his large personality, making him a dynamic presence.
As a skilled practitioner of the sideshow arts, Adam has been seen on the Science Channel’s series Oddities, the Food Network’s hit show Sweet Genius and in the latest New York Dolls video as well as the New York Times, The Wall St. Journal and New York magazine. Adam will be making his film debut this spring in a documentary entitled ‘Bending Steel’.

Cardone
Magician, Ventriloquist, Escape Artist...This full-time performer has captivated audiences around the world with his modern twist on old fashioned entertainment. His shows range from full stage productions for private and corporate functions to night club cabaret
venues, and his magic has been featured on: Fox 5 News, A&E Biography, IFC, MTV, CW’S reality show Stylista, VH1, Wonderground Las Vegas, Monday Night Magic’s Main Stage and as the opening act for the Miss Hong Kong Pop Show.

Kryssy Kocktail
A perfect blend of beauty and comedy, this gal can easily be called the world’s most glamorous sword swallower. Kryssy has been a full time performer with the Coney Island Circus Sideshow, a knife thrower’s target girl and a magician’s assistant. Cheating death has been her specialty for many years and she continues to defy the odds as she swallows swords, eats razor blades and gleefully gets squashed in a bed of nails sandwich. She has also been seen in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not publications, and on the hit television show Cake Boss.
