LUDLOW, Vt. – Ventriloquist Al Getler uses his sharp wit and skills for a show filled with laughs for audiences of all sizes, age groups, and performance venues. He is performing as a part of the Fall Into Winter Celebration on Oct. 8, at 2 p.m., at Okemo Mountain Resort – Jackson Gore, 111 Jackson Gore Road in Ludlow.
Getler has been seen on Discovery and A&E Network channels hundreds of times with his buddy Jeff Dunham. He has also been featured on Good Morning America, Fox TV, and other TV appearances. He has entertained corporate audiences such as AT&T, GE, USA Today/Gannett Corp, and has appeared in New York, New York Hotel & Casino, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, and more.
Getler knows family audiences. He was recently held over for one year at a top-rated Pocono Mountains family resort.
“When I say family, I mean the whole family,” said Getler. “My audiences span the entire spectrum including children, teenagers, adults, and the grandparents.”
His secret, Getler maintains, is to keep the laughs right down the middle. He uses a cast of his unique puppet characters, and even includes audience members as puppets. Getler focuses his performances on lively banter along with silly and wholesome fun.
“Just like the old Bugs Bunny cartoons, there are jokes aimed at the adults while the kids are laughing along,” said Getler. “And teens play a key role in my show as participants on stage as Puppet Mouth Singers. The response is great.”
After a recent theater show, a mother paid the highest compliment Getler can imagine when she said, “You even made my 18-year-old laugh!”
“That is the stuff I will bring to the Fall Into Winter Celebration,” said Getler. “The entire family should be ready to participate and have a great time. And they should have their phone ready for pictures!”
“Get there early, as there is limited seating,” said Fall Into Winter Celebration organizer Kathy Burns, about the day of the show, “We want to everyone to enjoy the show as we celebrate our wonderful community.”
The #puppetmouth photos will take place immediately after the show.
