It all adds up

I've noticed a debate on WORLDVENTS as to which has provided more exposure and value to ventriloquism... the Letterman appearances, the Jeff Dunham Comedy Central shows and DVD sales, the Jay Johnson Broadway show and on and on...

In no way does this comment mean to detract from the power and influence of any of those milestones. But when you add up all of the audiences for all of the shows ventriloquists do at hospitals, schools, churches, community theaters and dozens of other so-called 'minor' venues everyday, the impact on the art and appreciation of ventriloquism is substantial. We may labor in relative obscurity, but the combined affect we ventriloquists have is also powerful.

We can all be proud of that.
