Alex Zerbe, aka The Professional Zaniac, bursts onto the stage with the energy of 1,000 suns.  He moves like a human rubber band, stretching the limits of comedy, skill, and pure fun.  From the moment he appears, Alex launches into a fast-paced mix of beatboxing, juggling, dancing, music, and magic.  His show keeps audiences of all ages laughing, gasping, and cheering for more.  

Alex is a master of visual comedy and controlled chaos.  He jumps between wild stunts and quick one-liners with ease.   One minute he’s slicing vegetables in mid-air with playing cards.  The next, he’s juggling flaming torches and bowling balls - while cracking jokes the whole time. Whether bounding across the stage or chatting with the crowd, he keeps the energy high and the laughs steady.  

With nearly 15 years of stage experience, Alex knows how to wow a crowd.  He’s a two-time Guinness World Record holder and a former Hacky Sack World Champion.  He’s also won the title of Pacific Northwest’s Funniest Prop Comic.   Before performing solo, he was half of the award-winning comedy duo Brothers from Different Mothers.  

You may have seen him on America’s Got Talent or Last Comic Standing. He’s performed on cruise ships, at schools, corporate events, and festivals around the world.  His show blends skill, silliness, and surprise—and often includes fun, teachable moments that sneak in science and movement.  

Whether you’re a kid or a grown-up, Alex Zerbe will leave you amazed and laughing.  Visit TheZaniac.com to learn more—and get ready for a show you won’t forget.
