Terry Fator Tickets:
Terry Wayne Fator is a ventriloquist, impressionist, comedian, and singer from Dallas, Texas. Fator is capable of doing over 100 ventriloquial impersonations, and uses 16 different puppets in his act. He was born June 10, 1965 in Dallas, Texas, and was the winner of Season 2 of "America's Got Talent," receiving the million dollar prize. The following year, he was signed on as the headliner at The Mirage hotel and casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Fator began ventriloquism when he was in fifth grade. While searching for a book for an assignment, he came across a book about ventriloquism called, "Ventriloquism for Fun and Profit," by Paul Winchell. Fator checked out the book and started learning about ventriloquism. A few weeks later, he bought a Willie Talk dummy and soon won a $25 prize for a performance at a church picnic. Throughout his childhood, Fator entertained family and friends with his ventriloquism and did impersonations of singers and actors. In sixth grade, he appeared on a popular children's show in Dallas called "Peppermint Place." Fator got his start touring as the lead singer of a band called "Freedom Jam" in 1987, produced by Young American Showcase. They performed at over 200 high schools and middle schools across the United States, averaging three performances per school day. By mid 1988, he was the lead singer of a show band called Texas the Band when he was 20, and incorporated his puppet Walter T. Airedale into his shows. Fator's band at one point was about to sign with a major record label when one of the label's representatives came to hear the band. Fator sang the songs impersonating the original vocalists. The label insisted that Fator sing in his own voice so he turned down the offer. After a stall in his career, Fator contemplated pursuing another avenue, but his family encouraged him to hang in there. Terry entered the America's Got Talent competition with the hope that the exposure if he made it to the Top 20 might help his career and cause people to want to attend his shows, and won the entire competition. Fator's success stems from combining singing and ventriloquism. Prior to winning America's Got Talent, Fator was an opening act for Reba McEntire, Garth Brooks, Neal McCoy, and Styx. Fator also made corporate appearances at General Motors and AT&T.

"The show was great. I have to tell you I was a little worried about buying tix on line.... I was imagining that my daughter would get to the show and find out the tickets were duplicates or something. I was very happy they weren't and I would definitely purchase tickets through your website in the future."
