Amazing Barry Silver - The Geek
Barry Silver, once a student of the old church, first witnessed his dark fate at the tender age of six. While attending one “cirque manifique” young Barry’s popcorn was stolen by a clown. Snatched from his little hands and eaten right in front of him; a life changing event for sure.
Since the age of six Mr. Silver has studied magic, clowning, escapism, and sideshow feats of human ability and endurance. His passions drove him to quit high school to attend Spiffy’s Gang Clown College and perform full time.
This entertainer extraordinaire, a man of a million tricks, has been spotted pushing his body to near death experience all over Pennsylvania. Currently based out of Philadelphia, PA, Barry Silver is a founding member of The Unholy Sideshow.
This geek escapes from a straight-jacket only to walk on broken glass, eat light bulbs, play with fire, and shove hatpins through the thick of his arms - And that’s only in the first act!!!
Reverend First Minister - The Freak
Reverend First Minister attacks the stage with zeal unparalleled, engaging the crowd and pulling them into the underworld of sideshow. The Reverend’s passion for the sideshow was ignited when he realized he could stick five inches of cold steel directly into his head. Shortly he followed that up with a staple gun pressed against his forehead.
After forming the Unholy Sideshow with the Amazing Barry Silver, performances became even more insane, further testing the limits of the human body.
Reverend First Minister performs the blockhead, staple gun, human pincushion, human ashtray, cinder block breaking and animal trap routines. To date, the Reverend First Minister is one of only two people in the world who can open a glass beer bottle with his throat!
This tiny terror is an unexpectedly cute addition to The Unholy Sideshow. Don’t let her appearance fool you she is a devil.
While she began her career as an assistant in The Amazing Barry Silver’s magic Show, it turns out her real passion lies in stomping Barry’s face into broken glass and enabling our masochistic tendencies. Miss Elisha is currently the only member of The Unholy Sideshow willing to brave the Sword Basket and the Blade Box. She is currently studying the ancient Indian art of the Bed of Nails.
Hellcat is The Unholy Sideshow’s own tattooed, fire-breathing demon.
Once employed as a pirate, Hellcat gained an encompassing knowledge of the blade and is an impressive performer who commands attention on stage. As she began learning to handle fire, her talents became obvious and she gravitated toward the circus arts.
Now, a member of The Unholy Sideshow, Hellcat performs fire and various torture acts.
