This was one of the most entertaining and touching performances I've seen in a long time. Mr. Johnson's description of his art is fascinating, his technical skill as a ventriloquist is awesome, his stories about the pursuit of his art are tender and sweet, and his "dummies", whom I swear are alive, elicited uncontrollable laughter. This was truly a memorable time for me.

Jay Johnson: The Two and Only is hilarious, moving and thought provoking. It is an ideal introduction to Broadway and live theatre. It was created by a team of veteran theatre professionals, who also share a love and understanding of the importance of arts education.
