The stand out star of season 10 of NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” was without a doubt Piff the Magic Dragon.

With over 40 million YouTube hits to his name, Piff has performed to hundreds of thousands of fans all over the world in iconic venues such as Radio City Music Hall, Shakespeare’s Globe, the O2, London and Sydney Opera house.

Darcy Oake in CBC News Manitoba
See Darcy June 6 and 7 at the Burton Cummings Theatre in Winnipeg.
Watch Darcy's segment on CTV Morning Live.
From CBC News Manitoba:
Watch Darcy's segment on CTV Morning Live.
From CBC News Manitoba:
Illusionist Darcy Oake will wow fans at two shows in Winnipeg in June, and 100 per cent of the proceeds will go toward the construction of a new addiction treatment centre he says his hometown sorely needs.
Oake skyrocketed to fame three years ago after appearing on Britain's Got Talent, and now he's turning his attention toward an issue that is close to his heart.
Oake's brother Bruce Oake died after an overdose six years ago. The family started the Bruce Oake Foundation to raises awareness of addiction issues and fundraise for a long-term treatment centre like the one Bruce attended in Alberta.

Brandon and Prince George: Ty Reveen
See Ty at the WMCA in Brandon on March 25 and in Vanier Hall in Prince George on April 1st.
From the Prince George Citizen:
From the Facebook page of Reveen the Legend Continues:
From the Prince George Citizen:
Pushing the mental buttons of Canada is now a best-selling tradition for one Canadian family.
Like his father before him, the name Reveen is now being worn by a hypno-entertainer who is touring the nation, wowing audiences from coast to coast with a combination of comedy and feats of the human mind.
Organizers call the Reveen experience "the most popular show in the history of Canadian theatre," for its longevity and public appeal over the two generations it's gone on. An estimated audience of more than six million viewers have taken in the first generation of performances, and now those numbers are set to grow.

Dean Gunnarson in the Westman Journal
From the Westman Journal:
Imagine being shackled and chained inside a glass box filled with water. It’s a stunt few people can pull off. Escape Artist Dean Gunnarson is going to attempt just that at this year’s Toastmaster’s Conference.
While being on stage and performing in front of people seems to come natural to Gunnarson, the performer has had to overcome fears of his own.
“He has quite an inspirational story. He’s faced a lot of his fears,” said Ryan Sturgeon.
Gunnarson’s attempt to escape the Russian Death Tank will cap off the conference being held Nov. 11-12 at the Victoria Inn.
