Matt Tardy: Juggling & Mayhem
Juggler and comedian Matt Tardy delivers a fast-paced show that blends astonishing object skills, quick clean humor, audience involvement, and impressive displays of strength and flexibility, all wrapped in playful physical chaos. Designed to captivate kids of all ages, the program entertains while sharing a clear message about perseverance and chasing your dreams. Drawing on his own battle with stage 4 cancer, Matt weaves a character-building message throughout the performance, highlighting resilience and the power of not giving up. With over 30 years onstage around the world, his credits include Disney and Princess Cruise Lines, The Atlantis Resort in The Bahamas, and three performances at The White House. Expect daring stunts such as balancing ladders on his face and squeezing through a tennis racquet, delivered with seasoned showmanship and quirky humor. After years of treatment and a hard-won recovery, he returned to the stage in 2025 in complete remission. The result is an uplifting, motivating, and very funny experience that encourages children to believe that hard work and a positive mindset can make anything possible.
