Thom Britton's Story
Thom Britton’s journey into the world of performance began at a young age. At just 16, he was captivated by the art of sideshow acts and quickly found himself performing in the circus. This hands-on experience was intense, with Thom often performing 12 shows a day, seven days a week. It was a demanding, yet exhilarating, practice that pushed him to refine his craft and expand his skills.
As Thom reached his early 20s, his passion for learning led him to pursue higher education. He earned a degree in Applied Sciences, a field that might seem worlds apart from his circus career, but one that deepened his fascination with the mechanics of the world. His education reinforced his natural curiosity, constantly prompting him to ask, “How does that work?”

With over 100,000 volts of electricity, chainsaws, nails, and broken glass as his playthings, Thom's show is anything but ordinary. It's a celebration of skill, danger, and humor that leaves audiences on the edge of their seats, mesmerized by his daring feats.
