The Suffolk welcomes not one but two “America’s Got Talent” stars for Halloween weekend this year — Piff the Magic Dragon on Thursday, October 26, at 8 p.m. and Tape Face on Sunday, October 29, at 8 p.m.
Since breaking out on “America’s Got Talent” and “Penn & Teller: Fool Us,” viral sensation Piff the Magic Dragon has won the heart of America with his network television appearances, nonstop touring and unyielding passion for snacks. Voted one of Variety’s “Top Ten Comics to Watch,” crowned champion of TBS’s “Tournament of Laughs,” he is the first act to ever win Best Comedian, Best Magician, and Best Headliner at the Best of Las Vegas Awards.
Piff and his co-star Mr. Piffles, the World’s Only Magic Performing Chihuahua, have headlined the Flamingo Hotel and Casino since 2015, playing to over 500,000 guests, and have recently been signed for another three years. His first special, “Reptile Dysfunction,” filmed at the Piff the Magic Dragon Theatre, is out now, and his first book, “Piff the Magic Book,” will be published this summer.
To make this performance special for Halloween weekend, costumes are welcome for a costume content with Piff himself.
Tape Face is a silent comedian who performs mime with noise, stand-up with no talking, and drama with no acting. Best known as being a finalist on “America’s Got Talent,” he became a viral sensation with his audition video and show performances having over 47 million views — making it one of the most viewed “America’s Got Talent” videos ever.
The subtle, yet hilarious, comedian speaks no words, making his comedy enjoyable for audiences of all ages all over the world. The ideas behind this silent comedian’s routines are simplistic, making use of everyday household props, but somehow also one-of-a-kind. His stage antics are wry, delightful, and guaranteed to bring out the inner child in everyone.
Tickets for each show are $39 to $69, or purchase tickets for both shows and get 25 percent off the whole purchase. Tickets available at thesuffolk.org. Suffolk Theater is at 118 East Main Street, Riverhead.
