QUOTES

-- Sam Hendrikse
Director, Cape Town Comedy Festival, South Africa
 
"Colourful, creative and spectacular, all rolled up in a yo-yo! The Yo-Yo People are an absolute joy to work with -- artistic quality and professionalism combined bring this duo to the forefront of performance." 
-- Kelly McKeigan
Talent Coordinator, Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, Montréal Canada
"To do what these performers do is pretty extraordinary ... it's not just the ability to handle a yo-yo or do a juggling trick, it takes a lot to engage people to really make them have a moment of spontaneous joy -- which I think this world needs all the more of. These two people deliver that in droves."
-- Al Kraizer
Producer, Denver Busker Festival
