Rusty O'Flattery -That Celtic comical broth of a boy. Family fun with an Irish flavor featuring outrageous juggling, silly magic, devilish tales, audience involvements and more. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll wonder if his hair is real, or at least why he goes out in public like that.

As seen at a diverse array of United States and international events. "Ah've walked all the way from the highland ya noo laddie." His running litany of Scot's humor and visual absurdity will have you in stitches... if you can understand what he's saying.
