As has become its trademark after 23 years, UniverSoul Circus will present a multicultural/multinational cast of rock-star performers in 2016.

"Just like the circular ring in which it sits, UniverSoul celebrates cultures from around the world and brings them together under the big top," said Founder and CEO Cedric Walker. "At this time in our history we need to come together, to embrace and learn from each other. I believe the circus naturally brings people together. In 23 years of searching for talent, I have journeyed to every continent to find a multicultural, multinational mix of talent to showcase."

Leading the charge this year as Ringmaster for UniverSoul Circus is Tony Tone a.k.a Tony Luewellyn, a veteran comedian/actor who has set the mood for continuous entertainment with his mastery of impressions and real life humor since 1990. He has a way of connecting with his audience via his original characters and master impressions of Hollywood celebs like Chris Rock, Chris Tucker, Jackie Chan, Bill Clinton, or even Homer and Marge Simpson! He has appeared on television shows like: NBC's "Later", HBO's Def Comedy Jam, BET's Comicview and is featured on a DVD with Cedric The Entertainer entitled, "The Starting Line Up 1". From the moment Tony's spontaneous personality steps on stage all eyes are on him, the laughter begins and is never ending.
