With Terry Fator’s latest incarnation of his ventriloquism show, he veers slightly off the beaten path from his previous shows. Sure, you will see many of his famous dummies, like Winston the Impersonating Turtle, Duggie Scott Walker and Walter T. Airdale, but you’ll also get a glimpse into how and why they were created. The show explores what inspired and motivated Fator during that process.
If you have never seen a Fator show in Vegas, you’re in for a pleasant night. With other ventriloquists, you might get some jokes delivered by a dummy, but with Fator, you’ll not only get those jokes, you’ll get singing and celebrity impersonations. Each dummy in the show specializes in one of those areas of entertainment. For instance, Duggie makes a series of observations about life, and Fator makes a few observations about Duggie. Several of the characters belt out tunes, like Walter’s country ones; Fator even has a Dean Martin dummy to really capture the Vegas vibe.
Sometimes it’s a little hard to remember that these characters are products of Fator’s imagination, and not just another cast member playing alongside him. And that might be the best part of the show.
