Michael Rayner

Michael’s show has been described as “preposterous brilliance” and “whacky jugglement,” a combination of hilarious tricks and stunts with uproarious stand- up. His signature trick is spinning a Burger King cheeseburger on a parasol which garnered him an appearances on America’s Got Talent, The Late Late show with James Corden and The David Letterman Show. He’s also appeared on Sesame Street, The Extreme Gong Show, Thirty Seconds to Fame and Nickelodeon’s What Would You Do. He can also balance shoes on his nose, a wheelbarrow on his chin, along with many other unique found object jugging tricks.
He performs regularly at southern California venues, Flappers Comedy Club, The Magic Castle, Hermosa Beach Comedy Magic Club, Teatro Martini Cabaret, The Tony Martini Show, The Brookeledge Follies and Downtown Disney,
Michael frequently pops up in TV commercials. He was a weird scientist for IBM and a dork washing a cardboard car for Saturn. He played a hapless gas station attendant who tries to take a photo of Elvis in an Energizer battery commercial and has appeared with Ringo Star, Jane Seymour, and Anthony Quinn promoting other worthwhile products. Maybe his proudest achievement was having Frank Sinatra personally approve him to promote his compilation CD for a Capitol Records commercial.
