Terry Fator has been living out his Las Vegas dreams for nearly a decade with his own marquee headlining show in his own theater at the Mirage.

“This is where the greatest entertainers on the planet come to perform,” he says. “Celine Dion, the legend of legends, her vocals are not human. She’s just ridiculous. No one should be able to sing that perfectly. And she’s right next door. That’s the best part. I love when those legends come here for a residency because it makes me realize what an honor it is for me to be here and sustain a show.”

We talk with Terry all about his unique blend of comedy, music and ventriloquism; his recent European vacation and impromptu performance on a tour bus in Italy; his first puppet purchase; the hours of practice required to hit those high notes without moving your lips; and the most popular character in his current arsenal.
