Meet Brent McCoy, a wildly entertaining comic performer who happens to be dressed as a construction worker. It's like Cirque du Soleil meets The Home Depot! In the Real McCoy Show, he combines circus, comedy, and audience participation for knee-slapping entertainment. His charming character and technical abilities make him the perfect performer for YOU. This ain't just a funny guy in a hard hat, it's the Real McCoy! |

Pinky (Pinky Aiello)

Pinky Aiello was born Deaf and, it would seem, born to juggle. As America's only professional Deaf female juggler she has performed at hundreds of venues and has literally been on TV, in Movies and even performed on the Midway at the fabulous Circus Circus Resort in Las Vegas. We are especially pleased to have Pinky join us for this 35ht RIT Juggle In as she ia a graduate of NTID and a former student of the RIT juggling class. (She learned to juggle from Juggle-In founder Greg Moss) For more abot the many different performances she does check out her webpage at http://www.pinkythejuggler.com

Yuta Asano

Yuta is an amazing juggler, and he is also currently a RIT Graduate Student specializing in Color Science. Born and raised in Okayama, Japan he knew nothing about juggling until age 18 when he came across juggling in Kyoto, and joined the Juggling Donuts. Specializing in 3 ball juggling and rapid spins, he has performed juggling since 2005 in places like the EJC2011 open stage in Munich Germany, JJF(Japan Juggling Festival) 2007 championship and other juggling events in Kyoto,Japan includign shopping centers, schools and festivals. |

He performs in stage productions and also teaches Deaf and hearing children and adults in juggling and dancing. He is a founder of the performance-company “1880”. He has performed at the European Juggling Convention and multiple other venues. |
Erin Stephens
| Based out of Durango, Colorado, Erin Stephens performs routines that seamlessly combine a feminine finesse with a technical prowess, a graceful stage presence with a little bit of sass. An award winning entertainer, she currently juggles with Salt Fire Circus and has recently had the honor of performing at 2 international circus festivals near Mexico City and Guadalajara, Mexico. Erin is currently on the Board of Directors for the International Jugglers’ Association (IJA), and is enjoying discovering the “political side” of juggling, while implementing programs to benefit jugglers around the world. This will be Erin’s second time returning to the RIT Spring Juggle-In as a special guest, and she is super excited to do so. |

Dave Cox
| I started performing my one-man comedy juggling and strange feats act in the early 90s. My obsession with developing original material and hazardous situations has led to “The Toilet Paper Tightrope of Death” and many other skills, stunts, feats, acts, and predicaments. I’ve performed my “Shirt Trick” on The Late Show with David Letterman and my “Pants Trick” on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. I am currently working on a top-secret project involving magnets.
