“His construction-themed stunt comedy show features a toolbox full of props, hilarious audience interaction and breathtaking circus feats. It’s been described as watching Cirque du Soliel at the Home Depot,” a Boothbay Opera House release states.
The release describes McCoy as follows:
Born and raised on a dairy farm in Vermont, McCoy is no stranger to hard work. He began jugging in high school and spent thousands of hours practicing in between studying at Bates College in
Lewiston. Upon graduating, he ventured into the world with a degree in fine arts and 437 circus tricks, the latter of which have kept him entertained and employed ever since.
McCoy is known as an exceptionally versatile entertainer, equally comfortable doing shows on the street and on the stage. Since 2005, he’s toured around the country and around the world.
When he’s not touring with his theater show, he’s performing at Boston’s historic Faneuil Hall marketplace, teaching physical theater with YES! Theater Company, and producing variety shows with Vermont Vaudeville.
Audiences often remark on his ability to relate to everyone in the room and they marvel at his combination of technical skill and charming wit. He’s been the top selling act at IndyFringe and he’s won the People’s Choice at the Vermont Festival of Fools.
