Why see Tape Face?
As Seen on America's Got Talent
After making waves in the UK and his native New Zealand, Tape Face (real name Sam Willis) finally came to America's attention on the eleventh season of America's Got Talent, where his utterly unique act took him all the way to the final.
Taking to the stage with a piece of gaffer tape across his mouth, Tape Face brings silent comedy into the 21st century with his inventive blend of prop comedy and vaudeville. His act, which frequently involves members of the audience, makes use of everything from plungers to oven gloves to create bizarre, and strangely beautiful, routines that you'll never see anywhere else. For instance, during his time on America's Got Talent, he duelled against an audience member with staple guns and balloons, and brought judge Heidi Klum up on stage to recreate the pottery scene from Ghost with some silly putty.

Tape Face Is A Sure Thing On The Strip!
Now I will preface this review by stating my wife and I are huge
Tape Face fans ever since his first appearance on America's Got
Talent. Once we heard is was appearing at the Flamingo Hotel in
Las Vegas - we made every effort to make sure we got there to see
him.
We purchased the Meet and Greet package which allowed us to
enter the showroom and speak with him for about 40 minutes,
and as there were only about a dozen of us, it was very intimate.
He was very friendly, talkative and answered all questions and told
us some stories and facts about his show we would have never
have know. We got a one of a kind Tape Face poker chip and a
personally signed poster - and he posed with all of us individually
for pictures. This was a great introduction to what was to be - a
memorable show experience.
As I have a background in show business, it is staggering to me the
amount of behind the scenes prep work that goes into making his
entire performance work. From the beginning to the end - it was
70 minutes of perfectly orchestrated lights, music and hilarious,
self created skits - with running jokes and themes that run from
the beginning to the end and plenty of interaction with the
audience. For those that wondered if Tape Face would not have
enough new material to fill a full show - HAVE NO FEAR as he has
included many new skits that have never been seen on social
media, some of which are better that what everyone saw on
America's Got Talent and youtube, mixed in with some of his "fan
favorite" skits that have become his signature. His expressions
and working with the audience is truly captivating, and the
resourcefulness of the props and ideas he has cultivated is
nothing short of genius. It is non stop hilarity that had us rolling
over with laughter the entire show. If you are a fan of what you
have seen of Tape Face on TV, you HAVE TO SEE his show. It is an
emotional roller coaster of crazy fun. I can say it is the most I have
been entertained of any show I have seen to date and will take
every opportunity to watch him perform again and again given the
chance to attend. He respects and loves his audience and gives
them everything he has on stage, and takes the time to pose with
EVERYONE at the end for pictures, sign autographs, and share
comments (though muffled through duct tape, his eyes tell every
emotion - lol).
In any given field you have those that rise above the rest and set a
standard in excellence and innovation. In music you had Elvis, in
sports it is Ali, Gretzky, Woods. One day I believe this quirky
vulnerable boy with tape on his face will be remembered in the
entertainment world just as those other masters have been
regarded in their crafts. Tape Face is nothing short of genius!. ... Read more
