About Give a Smile presents "The KING"

I've been a life long fan of Elvis Presley. His contributions to the music world and a young generation are priceless. Vocalists and musicians of today owe much to the tremendous pioneers of Rock and Roll. Elvis, Carl Perkins, Buddy Holly, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Ricky Nelson, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, and on & on......

THANK YOU!.... Thank you very much!

My beginnings as The KING.

All of this began in 2003, with a Novato production of "Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" and I was fortunate enough to get the role of The Pharaoh, the KING of Egypt. This is a WONDERFUL play with humorous similarities between The Pharaoh & Elvis.

After viewing my performance, the approached me and asked if I would be willing to wear an Elf costume and perform as ELFIS. It was an immediate hit! Attendance to the Christmas House multiplied! In 2002, one year prior to ELFIS, there were 27,000 people visiting the house. By 2006 there were 56,000 people annually!

In 2004 I was asked to be in a film created by Industrial Light Magic, George Lucas's company. It was a wonderful experience!

Soon after, people were asking me to perform at parties, weddings, telegrams, and so on.... The rest is history.

I am a Humoristic Impersonator. I never try to duplicate Elvis because I don't think that could ever be done by anyone! I simply try to make people smile & have a good time remembering a very talented & influential man.
