Alex Zerbe brings laughs, magic to stage

Beatboxing, juggling, dancing, singing, music and magic will be performed by Alex Zerbe at this year’s Butler Farm Show.

The self-described “human cartoon” moves like a rubber band as he zigzags between physical stunts and non-stop comedy.

For almost 15 years, Zerbe has been cracking jokes onstage. During the show, vegetables are sliced in half by flying playing cards, and flaming torches and bowling balls are juggled with ease, among other things.

The two-time Guinness World Record holder has performed everywhere from cruise ships and comedy clubs to prime-time television shows in three countries, including on “America’s Got Talent” and “Last Comic Standing.”

His antics can be seen Aug. 10, 11 and 12 at times to be announced on the free stage near the dairy barns as well as strolling the grounds.
