One definition of Elixir is "that
which brings forth life," and that is exactly what Alex has done for the last
twelve years all over North America and internationally, in over a dozen different
countries.
He is a favorite of the Vancouver Convention industry and has been the entertainment
high-light of countless corporate events.
On the Festival and Fair circuits, Alex is renowned for his ability to draw huge
crowds of enthralled onlookers. He's also known for playfully involving some of
those audience members in ways that are both amazing and highly entertaining.
"He truly wowed people with his talent and spirit! Alex's exhibitions and showmanship
considerably added to the successful atmosphere of our event"

Alex was born and raised in Nova Scotia. A rambunctious and hyper class clown who
got a taste of theater with a local puppet company, Alex was a performer before
even he realized it.
He saw his first street- performing juggler on a trip to California when he was
nineteen. Inspired by that show, Alex started practicing...Within a few years, he
was a competent technical juggler.
After honing his skills on the streets of Vancouver he performed his first stage
show at a rowdy, drunken stag party. Fortunately better gigs followed.
Twenty years later, Alex is an award winning, internationally acclaimed funnyman,
event consultant and circus instructor. He lives in British Columbia, Canada with
his family, and still loves his job!
