"Rock 'N Road Show - The Adult Circus"

September 2008

The Adult Circus, starring Michael Dubois and Chris Chelko is a polished team of magic, comedy and mind-blowing feats of skill. Holding the rapt attention of the enthusiastic audience at Mt. St. Mary’s, the pair juggled, jumped, mystified, amazed and astounded everyone watching their show. From mind-blowing card effects to incredibly unique presentations of some tried and true routines, these two lived up to the name of The Adult Circus.

Michael and Chris have both been performing in the college market for several years now, but recently made the move to New York City to pursue some incredibly gratifying and career building opportunities. Working some really exciting private events, such as being contracted by CEO Jeff Zucker for a bash held for NBC television stars recently, these two guys are really on their way up. “We moved to NYC because we were already working big-time private events in the city every weekend anyway. We are getting bigger and bigger events under our belts and people are starting to notice, because we are unique act. As a two person act, we use magic, juggling, sideshow, ESP and comedy all in one grand show. It has been a lot of fun and we really enjoy performing for everyone, but especially the college market because they are so much like us.”

The guys have also recently done an event for HBO, as well as co-performing with the pussycat dolls for “The Big Idea’s” is Donny Deutsch’s birthday party.

“Living in New York, we’ve gotten much further than we ever expected to in just a year. We are doing very big gigs, on the level of the things you see on TV. Every party we have done, the client has spent a million dollars or more. It has been great and we are starting to build a very nice foundation.”

This experience translates nicely into the college market, where the energy levels are up, students are excited and everyone just wants to be entertained. “The Adult Circus is a full variety show and is something different that the college market really hasn’t seen yet,” Chris says. “We identify with the crowd more because that is where we started. When we were in college, the people Mike and I enjoyed seeing were Dale K, The Evasons and Alain Nu. Those three acts sat down with us and talked to us for a long time and kept in touch with us while we were in college.”

“We told them,” Michael says, ‘Look, this is what we really wanted to do, but we need some help. They got us started and helped us out. We knew the college market was where we wanted to be as soon as we graduated.”

It has been a consistent ride up for them since then, but in the last 2 years the guys have really worked to increase their presence in the campus market. As one of the most unique, exciting and amiable up and coming acts in the market today, you can’t go wrong booking The Adult Circus for your next amazing novelty event. - Campus Activities Magazine
