Dan's theatre program, Comedy in Motion, is "a breathtaking display of theatricality that's sharp, funny and highly inventive" (In Pittsburgh Weekly). His hilarious comedy and astonishing movement skills have earned him invitations to perform in theatres and arts festivals around the world, from West Palm Beach's Kravis Center for the Performing Arts to London's Battersea Arts Centre, from the QEH Theatre in Bristol, England to the Springfield Arts Council in Springfield, Ohio.

Dan's shows are breezy postmodern vaudevilles of physical and verbal comedy, but they offer more than mere entertainment. As Lancaster's New Era says, "Kamin has a biting wit that he uses quite effectively to satirize our world and himself as well. It's the kind of self-deprecating humor that only a performer totally in command of his talents can have." Pennsylvania's York Dispatch adds praise for Dan's "unbelievable stage presence"--but, in fairness, it must be noted that this is the town that brought the Scopes Monkey Trial into the 21st century.

Among Dan's gallery of characters are a magician who traps the audience in a web of deception as he tries to explain his secrets, a cellist who becomes his instrument, and a puppet master who dances with his ultimate creation, a beautiful, life-sized doll, who has ideas of her own about the relationship.

Repeat invitations are common for Dan, and this isn't necessarily a good thing. Because Kalamazoo's New Year's Fest hired him ten years in a row, there are now people in that town who can do Dan's show.

You can hire one of them if Dan's not available.
