Ben Bryant (Benny B) will be among some the nation’s best jugglers, acrobats, musicians and magicians to take on the 2015 Australian Street Entertainment Championships on the Gold Coast this Easter.
Benny B is no stranger to performing and has travelled to 27 different countries including Kuwait, Poland, Korea, Sweden, Jordan, China, Switzerland, Singapore, UAE, Austria and Sweden to perform.
He has also completed a degree at the National Institute of Circus Arts.
Despite his extensive travels, Benny B said it would be the first time he had presented his show in QLD.
“I'm really looking forward to the experience. Having returned from a season of shows in Dubai just this week, I can't wait to perform on Australian soil again,” he said.
“I believe comedy is the true universal language, enabling me to perform as a feature artist in 27 countries around the world.”
Benny B will perform acrobatic stunts, fire, a two metre ladder, circus skills and comedy at the championships which are set to unfurl over the Easter long weekend from Friday April 3 to Monday April 6.
The championships make up part of the schedule for the 2015 Surfers Paradise Festival, where thousands of people flock for the annual celebration.
