We had Paul as our Ed Sullivan at our annual Christmas event and he was phenomenal and so easy to work with. He has the look and act perfected. Great feedback from our attendees as well. So honored to have him a part of our event.

Response from Ed Sullivan/Austin Powers impersonator:
Khyentse and her staff couldn’t have been more gracious, professional and supportive. The annual Christmas Ball in Denver has thousands of moving parts and takes months to prepare and they pulled it off without a blemish! Thank you for the kind words and it was such a pleasure being a part of such a fun and magnificent epic event.
I hired Ed over 6 months prior to the event. He kept in contact throughout the process, and we collaborated on the show as the show became closer. The Day of the event he showed up on time, and prepared. We went over the program and when "Ed" opened with his performance he had the audience laughing and engaged. His jokes were appropriate, and his routine was eagerly accepted by all. Throughout the show his professionalism showed. He drove over 300 Miles to perform! Who does that? I would strongly recommend hiring "Ed", Mr. Terry.... for your event if you need the service he offers. The audience feedback was very positive. Well done!! Thank You for a great evening of comedy and wit!!!.. I highly recommend his show Gary Clifford - Band Manager

His word pronunciations sound just like Ed. He looks like Ed. He IS Ed ! Would not hire any other Ed impersonator other than Paul. He knows how to ad lib and even better your script if making a movie.
A real Pro.

Our fundraiser was for animal Samaritans and we put on an Ed Sullivan show with the cast of characters. Ed Sullivan was our central feature and he introduced each of the acts, which included Topo, Beatles, Peggy Lee, Johnny Cash, Neil Diamond, Liberace, Jimmy Durante, and The Beach Boys with Elvis Presley.

Thank you so much Mary Ann. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of your mom’s Allie B’e 100th birthday celebration! And it was evident from the start how much work you put into preparations for this momentous event! Thank you again and hope our paths cross in the future.
Paul did a fantastic job of impersonating Ed Sullivan.
He has the look, the mannerisms and the voice down perfectly. He was humorous, interacted great with both the audience and the other entertainers.
I highly reccomend Paul and would certainly use him again!

Response from Ed Sullivan/Austin Powers impersonator:
Thank you Steve. It was a pleasure! Your event and venue is top notch and your staff was a joy to work with. All the best in 2018.
Paul was very credible, polished and professional. He was able to work well
with our crowd and fit in with the band playing on the main stage. He was
great handling requests for pictures, selfies, and just chatting with people
approaching him.

Response from Ed Sullivan/Austin Powers impersonator:
Thank you Arthur and I must say you made the experience so effortless and I appreciated the hospitality, great venue, terrific band and of course grateful the weather cooperated as well. Thanks again for producing a great show!
Working with Paul was a very positive experience from first contact to completion. He was very professional in every way. He went above and beyond helping us to promote the show and his impression of Ed Sullivan was spot on and wonderfully portrayed. He had the audience laughing out of their seats. I look forward to working with Paul again!

What to Expect
I have a variety of original comedy material as either Ed Sullivan or Austin Powers. As Ed I sometimes add some comedy impressions of past celebrities such as Joey Bishop, Jack Benny, Barney Fife, Richard Nixon, etc.. Most of my material is family friendly and I'm quick on my feet if I need to learn names of upcoming acts, corporate officers, upcoming events and to share announcements. I can also work meet and greet type events by strolling through a crowd in character and ad libbing with VIPS and audience members.
About
Paul Terry bio: I'm an entertainer who moved to Las Vegas in my early twenties in the 1980's and have performed as a musician, actor, and impersonator from then until the present. I've been hosting a long running Beatle Show at Planet Hollywood for the better part of the last ten years and have also travelled extensively throughout the country as an Ed Sullivan and Austin Powers impersonator. I've also subbed many times as Joey Bishop in the "Rat Pack Is Back" show at the Rio Hotel here in Las Vegas. I love working with event planners in customizing material for hosting variety acts and since the Beatle tribute world is experiencing quite a revival from this being the 50th anniversary of the Fab Four on the Ed Sullivan show it is a perfect time to build your event around such an iconic and familiar face from the 60's. Most of the work I do is family friendly but I can spice it up, especially as Austin when required.
Additional Booking Notes
I work very simply and only require a lavalier or hand held microphone.

Influences & Inspiration
My love of the Beatles drew me into the tribute/impersonation business and I haven't looked back. I stay informed of cultural trends and love the theater and movies and sprinkle in current references to keep my act fresh.
