Nizer, who last appeared at Rockefeller Arts Center in 2010, is considered one of the greatest entertainment comedians and jugglers performing today. His wild exploits have landed him on MTV, HBO’s “Just for Laughs” and more. He has opened for Jerry Seinfeld, Bob Hope, George Burns, John Byner, Gladys Knight, The Temptations, Johnny Mathis, Ray Charles, and Barry Manilow.
Working under the theme of making the impossible possible and the improbable probable, Nizer has taken his one-man show to a variety of venues around the world, including The Improv, The Comedy Store, Walt Disney World, numerous college campuses, and all major cruise lines.
He has also performed in thousands of opera houses, civic centers, festivals and performing arts centers including the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (three times).
Entertainment Magazine states, “Without a doubt the hottest juggler on the entertainment market, Mark Nizer is simply incredible.”
Nizer’s combination of original comedy, world class juggling, movement, music and technology create a spellbinding evening. Whether juggling laser beams at 1,000 RPMs or five ping pong balls being thrown 20 feet in the air using only his mouth or even juggling a burning propane tank, a running electric carving knife and a 16-pound bowling ball, you’ll discover for yourself that Nizer is and The really “the juggler your mother warned you about.”
